If you can’t be available for full-time work and don’t have enough money to live on, you may be able to get Income Support. Whether you qualify or not and how much you get depends on your circumstances.
You may qualify if you are on a low income and any of the following apply: you are a lone parent, you are sick or disabled, you are aged 60 or over, you are caring for someone who is ill or disabled, you are registered blind.
To find out if you qualify for Income Support, contact your local Jobcentre Plus office or benefits office.
