More than 1.5 million pensioners receive payments of either £68.10 or £101.75 each week to help with a long-term health condition.
The latest figures from the Department for Work and Pensions show that at the end of August last year, there were over 1.5 million people across Great Britain receiving additional financial support through Attendance Allowance. The data also indicated that over 136,200 people living in Scotland are receiving either £68.10 or £101.75 each week through the benefit.

From April 2024 these rates will rise to £72.65 and £108.55 each week. This amounts to either £290.60 or £434.20 every pay period.
