It will be a big boost to many
People on PIP or Disability Living Allowance are expected to get up to £691 every month beginning in April this year. It will impact millions across the UK who are claiming disability benefits from the Department for Work and Pensions .
The Daily Record reports that currently claimants can receive between £97.80 and £627.60 every payment period. This means a monthly increase of up to £63.40 is on the way for some of the UK’s most vulnerable households. However, it’s important to be aware those figures represent the minimum award possible - a single award for the lower rate mobility only, and the highest awards for both the daily care and mobility components.
