Hi there,

Welcome to our community. We are a very supportive bunch and hopefully, you will find folks here have a wealth of experience and knowledge to share. I note that Bella 395 has given you a link to the Government website. Do check out the Pinned Posts section, as we do have expert input, and yours is a frequently asked question. It is means tested, and the rules around eligibility are quite strict. But it is always worth investigating.

The Citizens Advice Bureau is another useful source of impartial help: citizensadvice.org.uk/benef...

Hope this helps. Do keep in touch and let us know how you get on.

Best wishes,

MAS Nurse
