DSCNE will subsidise the costs of the podiatry service for DSCNE service users, so each appointment will cost you €10 (instead of €35) and we will invoice you directly after the appointment. Fees for custom made items (such as insoles, custom orthotics for example) will also be subsidised by DSCNE by 50% up to a limit of €200 in one calendar year (this will then be reviewed.)
Conor has been garda vetted by DSCNE, but a parent/guardian must also attend the appointment with the child.
