Personal Independence Payment (PIP) is a benefit that helps people over 16 and under State Pension age with the extra costs of living with a long-term illness, mental health condition or physical, sensory or cognitive disability.
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) could award you between £23.70 and £152.15 per week to help with the costs of daily living and outdoor mobility needs.
PIP is usually paid every four weeks, and the amount you receive depends on how your condition affects you, not the condition itself.
The benefit is made up of two parts - a daily living component and a mobility component, you may be able to claim one or both of these depending on your circumstances.
