DWP shares most common health conditions that qualify for PIP

The Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) has shared which health conditions are most common in Personal Independence Payment (PIP) benefit claimants.

Almost three million people across the UK are in receipt of Personal Independence Payment (PIP) benefits, but the amount of help a claimant gets depends on the type of condition they have. Anyone who receives payments must be assessed to see what level of payment is awarded.

PIP payments are paid every four weeks, with claimants receiving anything from £97.80 to £627.60 per month. The benefit also comes into two parts, comprising a daily living part for people struggling with everyday tasks and mobility support for those needing help moving around.
