Following the introduction of PIP, Disability Living
Allowance is now intended as a benefit to help support children under 16 with
care and mobility needs. Adults under-65 who have care and mobility needs
should instead apply for
Personal Independence Payment (PIP), while those over
65 should claim
Attendance Allowance.
You can find
out more about eligibility for Disability Living Allowance and DLA rates on
the official government website, and additional information is available on Scope's DLA information page
