Without knowing more about your circumstances it is impossible for us to advise
If you look in gov UK website it will tell you the eligibility for benefits or maybe try a benefits calculator which can be found in our benefits section
Scope community team
Here's a link to a benefits calculator, which can show you what you may be entitled to claim.

What nationality are you? How long have you been in Great Britain?
What nationality are you ?
I think that's it
On your permit does it state you have access to public funds ?
And again what us your nationality
Without answering these we can't really advise
I suggest you go to a benefits office near you or citizens advice or welfare rights

you should probably seek advice from a local agency. https://advicelocal.uk/
Regardless of anything else you definitely can not access ESA because you do not meet the qualifying NI conditions and you cannot access PIP because you do not meet the past presence conditions.
