Hi folks, first time here, looking for advice please.
I have fibro and arthritis, haven't worked for 8 years now just help on the farm when I can.
We've managed off my partners wages and our savings, after having chemo last year we ended up moving to a smaller farm, with me being ill my partner is helping look after our 13 yr old and where we were was just too much.
We've hit the end of the road with savings and struggling with day to day living, would I qualify for help, esa or whatever and how would I go about finding out.
Thanks

Hi jacky and welcome
first thing to do is put your details into on of the online benefit calculatore, there is one one here.
Next take the on line self test for PIP
www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/personal-independence-payment-pip/pip-self-test
this is the benefit for people that have health conditions that prevent them doing some everyday tasks
Then come back and we will try and help
