Hello Pugs-4luv , I am sorry about your knee if it was my knee I've got Comfrey oil for sore bones. I think you can have your daughter as a carer if you are getting the PIP benefit, you can look on line. I don't think it would effect your other benefits , huff

The main difference would be -

When you claim Carer’s Allowance, the person you care for will stop getting:

a severe disability premium paid with their benefits

an extra amount for severe disability paid with Pension Credit, if they get one

Reduced Council Tax - contact their local council to find out if this affects them
