Nearly 1.5 million older people with a long-term health condition claiming Attendance Allowance are set for a significant income boost next April following confirmation from Chancellor Jeremy Hunt that benefits will rise in line with the September Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation figure of 6.7 per cent.

During the Autumn Statement, the Chancellor also announced that State Pensions will increase by 8.5 per cent - the earnings growth measure of the Triple Lock policy.

The annual uprating means that someone claiming the full, New State Pension, also in receipt of the higher rate of Attendance Allowance, will be due £1,319 every four weeks.

It’s important to understand that State Pensions and Attendance Allowance are paid every four weeks, providing a total of 13 payments over the course of the financial year.
