Attendance Allowance is a benefit that people who are over the State Pension age can claim from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).
It is for those who who need help with personal care or supervision because of a disability or physical or mental health condition.
Depending on the amount of care they require, claimants will get either £60 or £89.60 per week, paid as monthly instalments of £240 and £358.40 respectively.
