I care for my Wife who is on Pip Enhanced I claim the carers element. Since the budget it was announced Carers allowance was increasing significantly and wonder if this is the case for the element as well.
Thank you

Seems like you've misunderstood what was announced by the Government. Carers allowance isn't increasing. What they are increasing is what you can earn from working and still continue to claim carers allowance. Carers allowance will remain at £81.90/week and it will increase by 1.7% from April 2025.
