The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has introduced a one-off payment of £750 for individuals receiving Personal Independence Payment (PIP) and Disability Living Allowance (DLA), aimed at helping claimants purchase essential new items.
This payment is designed to assist claimants in acquiring important items such as household appliances, mobility aids, or other necessary goods to improve their quality of life and support daily living.
Eligible PIP and DLA claimants can apply for this one-off payment through DWP's designated process, with guidelines available on the types of items the payment can be used for.
