People suffering from long-term physical or mental health conditions may not know that they qualify for a significant amount of DWP benefits. There are at least 21 health conditions that can qualify for up to £4,800 a year.
The Personal Independence Payment (PIP) is already received by around 3 million people in the UK. But many others may be missing out on it, Leicestershire Live reports.
Since September alone, there have been 34,962 new claimants for PIP, a state benefit designed to improve living standards for those suffering from certain health conditions.
