Hi unfortunately pensioners struggle a lot with this in terms of help from the govt, it's really sad.. if your mum is over pension age, she can try and apply for attendance allowance if she is unwell. They could also try and apply for pension credit which is for low income. All the best

It's possible she could claim pip? If you go onto this site it'll break down what shes entitled to !

My mum doesn't work due to having mental health issues and her pension doesn't cover her mortgage, so she get's pip and her pension credit.
