DWP: The most common medical conditions you can get up to £627 PIP for - asthma, anxiety and arthritis

Those who suffer from certain conditions or select illnesses can receive a monthly PIP payment, paid directly by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), but the amount of financial assistance given to claimants differs from case to case, based on the disability they have and how it impacts their lives.

The DWP has also recently revealed that just under three million across the UK currently receive the benefit - introduced in April 2013 under the Government's Welfare Reform.
