DWP to issue extra cash up to £172 a week from April on medical grounds as full list issued

Brits with certain medical conditions could get extra cash of up to £172 a week from the DWP, even if they still are able to work.

You can get it if you're working or have savings as it is not means-tested. How much you get depends on how your condition affects you. Amounts will rise by 10.1 per cent from April 2023 in line with the uprating of state benefits.There are standard and enhanced rates for the daily and mobility elements of the benefit. The lowest amount is £24.45 a week for just being awarded standard mobility, which will increase to £26.90 from April, while the highest is £156.

In addition, those on PIP will automatically qualify for the new Universal Credit 'health element' announced in the Chancellor's Budget. This top-up will replace Universal Credit's existing Limited Capability for Work and Work-Related Activity amount, which currently pays £354.28 on top of the standard allowance . These reforms would come in by 2026 at the earliest.
