Get help claiming Attendance Allowance — up to £110.40 a week
If you or a loved one is over State Pension age and need help with everyday tasks, you could be entitled to Attendance Allowance. We do the form for you.
What is Attendance Allowance?
Attendance Allowance is a tax-free, non-means-tested benefit paid by the DWP to people of State Pension age (currently 66+) who need help with personal care or supervision because of a physical or mental disability.
It is paid at two rates: £72.65/week (lower rate) if you need help during the day OR night, and £108.55/week (higher rate) if you need help both day and night, or are terminally ill. Latest rates from April 2025.
You don't need a carer to qualify, and the money is yours to spend as you wish — many people use it for taxis, cleaning, gardening, energy bills or paying a family member who helps.
