flag UK adults 66+ with long-term back pain may get up to £441.40 monthly in non-means-tested benefits for daily living support.

flag People in the UK aged 66 and over with long-term back pain may qualify for up to £441.40 monthly through Attendance Allowance or Scotland’s Pension Age Disability Payment, non-means-tested benefits based on need for daily living support, not mobility. flag Over 78,000 in Great Britain and nearly 155,000 in Scotland receive such support, with payments made every four weeks. flag The higher rate applies if help is needed during the day, night, or both. flag Benefits are not affected by income or savings, and recipients can use funds flexibly. flag Applications can be made online, by phone, or post via GOV.UK or Citizens Advice. flag Those below State Pension age may instead qualify for PIP or ADP. flag The final 2025/26 uprating depends on September’s CPI, with figures expected in the November 26 Autumn Budget.
