I've been thinking of applying for a british citizenship for long and I hope somebody can give me firm informations and instructions as how to proceed in my tricky case

Many thanks in advance!
My mother was born british in England (1944) to a british dad born oversea (himself from a british-belgian couple) and a belgian born mother who became british by an oversea marriage.
she then went to live in Belgium, opted for belgian nationality because she wanted to teach small children and it was then an obligation to be belgian to do so then she married my belgian dad and stayed in Belgium where I was born (1975)
Now, she'd like to recover her british citizenship but she doesn't know if it' s possible for her to do that? and if yes, how? We always felt more Brits than Belgian.
I also wanted to know if I too would be entitled to proceed for a BC ? Would I have to wait for my mum to recover hers? and if yes, what would be the right or best one? Citizenship by simple or double descent ? Would one of the two gives my overseas-born minor children the possibility to become citizen as well now or later ? a lot of questions you see and I can't get no one on the phone nor email at the UK Citizenship website.
I must admit I feel completely lost in all the procedures/costs etc. and would love to be advised on my rather special case
