    Your local Citizens Advice Bureau will be able to assist you with this, as so too will a search online if you look at DWP Benefit Entitlements.

    Hi @Alexandria01, welcome to the community!
    You could also try the Benefits Calculator here which can highlight any means-tested benefits you might be entitled to. If you have any questions about this (or anything else) please don't hesitate to ask.

    Hi,

    A benefits calculator isn't much use in this situation because it doesn't tell you what you can claim.

    With very little information it's impossible to give any advice. I agree that you need to get a benefits check at an agency near you.

    Hello, have you looked on line and typed in your search bar, what benefits can a disabled person claim, doing this will get you a multitude of sites to look through including government ones. Good luck with your search save the sites for future reference.
