State Benefits
Your entitlement to certain State Benefits is dependant on your individual
circumstances and may be means tested when being assessed for care. You may also be entitled to
alternative benefits regardless of means.
Any benefits to which you are entitled should be claimed and can then be used to
contribute to the cost of your care. It is therefore important to establish which benefits you may
qualify for.
Your circumstances will influence the types and value of benefits to which you may
be eligible; it is therefore always advisable to obtain advice concerning your particular
situation.
Full details and advice can be obtained from the BENEFITS AGENCY, (Department of
Work and Pensions, DWP).
