People with certain respiratory conditions could be eligible for up to £156 a week through Personal Independence Payments from the Government.
PIP is available to those with disabilities or long-term health conditions. The payment is worth between £24.25 and £156.90 per week and is paid every four weeks, totalling up to £627.60 a month.
Nearly three million people across the country are entitled to this cash support from the DWP, but some may not realise they qualify. You can receive the benefit if you have a number of medical conditions including asthma, cystic fibrosis, sleep apnoea, chronic bronchitis, emphysema and pneumonia.
