<p>David Cameron is &#8220;very concerned&#8221; after the parents of a disabled girl claimed they may have to put their daughter in care after the Prime Minister went back on a pre-election pledge.</p>
<p>Six-year-old Holly Vincent is blind, quadriplegic and has cerebral palsy and epilepsy.</p>
<p>Her mother Riven told the Daily Mirror they cannot get the money for extra care at home despite reassurances from Mr Cameron during a visit to the family&#8217;s Bristol home last April.</p>
<p>&#8220;He promised us personally before the election that my Holly and the NHS would be safe in his hands.</p>
<p>&#8220;But clearly he has broken his vow and we feel very upset,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>A Downing Street spokesman said: &#8220;The Prime Minister is very concerned at what he&#8217;s heard. He&#8217;s writing to Riven Vincent and in conjunction he&#8217;s also asked her local MP for all the details of the case urgently.</p>
<p>&#8220;He&#8217;s also asking the MP to speak to the local council to make sure that she&#8217;s receiving all that she&#8217;s entitled to.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mr Cameron&#8217;s son Ivan was severely disabled and suffered from cerebral palsy and severe epilepsy. He required intensive round-the-clock care and died in 2009 aged six.</p>
<p>Ms Vincent and the girl&#8217;s father Mark, a £22,000 a year part-time research scientist, said they receive just six hours a week respite with a carer but will not be given any further help.</p>
<p>The 41-year-old mother, who suffers from MS, said Mr Cameron had &#8220;let us down badly and it&#8217;s affecting vulnerable families like us right across the country&#8221;.</p>
