Hello, was wondering if anyone can help. I am profoundly deaf at 80% in both ears. I was born deaf and have good speech I just dont hear a lot. I have never claimed benefits but someone said I am entitled to benefits if I am registered with a disabilty. Is this correct and what can I claim for?

Hi wendylloyd and welcome
You might qualify for PIP. Have a look at the B&W self test

Then come back with any questions

Hi @wendylloyd, and welcome! In addition to the above, you may also like to check out the online benefits calculator to see what you may be entitled to.
