❌ FALSE
This is one of the most common reasons people delay applying for Attendance Allowance.
While a diagnosis can support your application, it's not the diagnosis itself that determines whether you're eligible.
Attendance Allowance is based on the difficulties you experience with everyday living and the help or supervision you reasonably need because of a long-term health condition or disability.
For example, you may struggle with:
✔️ Washing or dressing.
✔️ Preparing meals safely.
✔️ Taking medication.
✔️ Moving around your home.
✔️ Staying safe because of memory problems, confusion or other health issues.
It's the impact on your daily life that matters most.
Many people wait months—or even years—for appointments or a formal diagnosis, but that doesn't necessarily mean you should wait to explore whether you're entitled to support.
If you're unsure whether you or a loved one could qualify for Attendance Allowance, our experienced team can assess your circumstances and help you understand your options.
