Personal Independence Payment (PIP) is a benefit that helps people over 16 and under State Pension age with the extra costs of living with a long-term illness, mental health condition or physical, sensory or cognitive disability.
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) could award you between £24.45 and £156.90 each week and as the benefit is paid every four weeks, that amounts to between £97.80 and £627.60 every payment period.
The benefit is made up of two parts - a daily living component and a mobility component, you may be able to claim one or both of these depending on your circumstances.
