  Hello @ROLLERBALL. 
  You have to be over state pension age for AA. There's some more information on eligibility here: Scope - Attendance Allowance
  
  The current rates are: 

  Rate	Level of help you need
  Lower rate - £59.70	Frequent help or constant supervision during the day, or supervision at night
  Higher rate - £89.15	Help or supervision throughout both day and night, or you’re terminally ill

  @ROLLERBALL - Thank you for the message on my wall. Just to say you may get either the lower rate, or the higher rate, not both.
