Attendance allowance

Hi This is my first time of posting. I have had Fibro for over 20 years but have managed to cope so far. In the last year I have found that I am struggling in many things and relying on my husband to do more. We are both retired but he has his own health issues and our family does not live locally. I have got a form for Attendance Allowance but not sure what to fill in for my condition. Is anyone able to suggest what to put please?

I would suggest contacting Age UK, they can help with filling in Attendance Allowance forms. Best wishes to you.

There's some good info on completing your AA form on Citizens Advice website. Please see: citizensadvice.org.uk/benef...

You could also contact them to get help in completing the form.
