New PIP-style benefit transfer update for people due a DWP award review this year

Adult Disability Payment is a new benefit replacing Personal Independence Payment (PIP) for people living in Scotland and is scheduled to launch in Angus, North Lanarkshire and South Lanarkshire on June 20.

The benefit already opened in March to new claimants in Dundee, Perth and Kinross and the Western Isles.

The next stage of the phased rollout will be in July for people in Fife, Aberdeen City, Aberdeenshire, Moray, North Ayrshire, East Ayrshire and South Ayrshire - if you live anywhere else in Scotland, you can make a new claim from August 29.
