Hi
You may be able to claim uc it's a means tested benefit but the savings cap is 16k but there 8s a reduction for savings over 6k
Another possibility is new style esa which isn't means tested but you need to have paid the required ni contributions in 2 prev tax years
You could try a benefits calculator found on gov website to enter your details and see what you may be entitled to
Or seek advice from an agency like welfare rights or cab for a full benefit check0
