This section will help you find out the range of benefits, tax credits and other disability-related financial support you may be able to get. It is only a general guide.

If you can't work because of illness or disability you may be able to get Employment and Support Allowance.

If you need help with getting around or looking after yourself because you are ill or disabled you may be able to claim Disability Living Allowance or Attendance Allowance.

If you are caring for someone who is disabled you may be eligible for Carer's Allowance.

If you are in work but on low pay, you can apply for Working Tax Credit to top-up your earnings. You may get extra if someone in your household is disabled.

You may be entitled to a reduction in your Council Tax bill if your home has certain features that are essential to you living there - for example, if you have an extension for a downstairs bedroom.
