Hi does anyone know if PIP, ESA and private pensions are taken into consideration (as income during means test) when assessing eligibility for a disabled facilities grant?

Hi @NPUK - Welcome to the community. I'm unsure if the following link completely answers your question, but it does mention that disability benefits such as PIP should not be taken into account.
