What is Disability Living Allowance (DLA) for children?

DLA is to help pay for the additional costs of your child’s long term health condition or disability. The benefit is split in to two parts, care and mobility or a combination of the two and is paid for your child up to the age of 16 years old.

What is Personal Independence Payment (PIP)?

Personal Independence Payment (PIP) is a benefit paid to people to help pay for the additional costs of a disability or long-term illness. PIP was introduced in 2013 to replace Disability Living Allowance (DLA). You can no longer apply for DLA over the age of 16 and anyone receiving DLA will be moved across onto PIP. For young people under the age of 16, the DLA for children is still in place.
