Do you get an ESA increase once you turn 25?
My daughter receives esa and turned 25 in October. A friend has told her she should get an increase in her money now she's older but she hasn't heard anything. Is this true or is it just people on universal credit who get an increase? I've tried searching online and can't find anything.
