Personal Independence Payment (PIP) is a benefit for people aged over 16 and under State Pension age who need extra help to cover the costs of daily living or getting around as a result of a physical or learning disability, long-term illness or mental health condition.
At the moment, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) could give you between £23.70 and £152.15 per week to help with these additional costs which is usually paid into your bank account every four weeks.
However, the UK Government confirmed that an increase of 3.1% will be applied to most benefits, including PIP and Disability Living Allowance (DLA) in just over a week's time.
