Does ESA end at age 65 or continue to your new pension age ?

If your state pension age is 66 does ESA continue to be paid until then ? The government website says it ends at age 65.

Hi Rex, ESA is payable until state pension age so if you reach state pension age at 66 then it is payable until the day before you are 66.
