Attendance Allowance, or Pension Age Disability Payment (PADP) in Scotland, is provided independently of the State Pension.
The full New State Pension is currently valued at £230.25 per week, which amounts to £921 every four weeks.
It's important to note that not all of the 4.1 million people on the New State Pension receive the full amount as it is tied to National Insurance Contributions.
The full Basic State Pension is now valued at £176.45 per week, or £705.80 every four-week payment period.
The health conditions supported by Attendance Allowance and PADP are listed below, based on data from the DWP's Attendance Allowance computer system.
