News in the National today of a new Scottish government benefit coming down the pipeline.
It's for people of pension age who need help with care. (For younger people there already is Adult Disability Payment).
The move of responsibility from the UK's DWP to Scotland's Social Security Department has made such benefits enormously less daunting to claim.
The new benefit won't be across Scotland until April 2025 after piloting in selected areas first.
For affected people, including people who thought about claiming but then gave up, discouraged, do try this when it is introduced to your area.
