Some older people may need help with daily living, for example, dressing, washing, or moving around indoors. Claiming Attendance Allowance can help with these costs.
This section gives details about Attendance Allowance, for those aged 65 or over. If you are under 65, you should claim Disability Living Allowance rather than Attendance Allowance.
