As regards UK benefits you are referring only to means-tested benefits paid by local authorities and they have varying upper and lower capital limits as well as differing treatment of capital between the two dependent upon age. There are different rules again for social security benefits paid by DWP and Tax Credits paid by HMRC and in the case of the former capital has no impact on either contributory or disability benefits.
