State pension changes

Thousands of Renfrewshire people over state pension age will receive up to £1,362 each month through a combination of two separate payments delivered by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and Social Security Scotland.

Attendance Allowance and Pension Age Disability Payment (PADP) are paid independently of the state pension but can provide additional financial support for older people with a disability, long-term illness, physical or mental health condition.
