Hi @ChloeHibbert
Just to add an additional resource, Citizens Advice have also published general guidelines about who is eligible for PIP, which you might want to send to your Mum's friend.0 -
Hi,If she's under state pension age then there's nothing stopping her from applying. It's not means tested so other household income will make no difference.0

Hi @ChloeHibbert It is always worth looking at the descriptors and how the applicant would score against them before deciding if to apply or not.
If mobility is affected and other aspects of daily living then there is no reason why not to apply0
