UK - are parents of special needs children entitled to any financial help?

I know that there is direct payment but that is only for adults.

I was wondering if parents of CHILDREN + young people 0-19 get any support for money i.e. transport, paying for day-time carers/childcare.

If they get any help form the voluntary sector or government or local council. How much weekly or monthly, if there is an assessment - how do you apply for it?

Thank you.
