Welfare benefits when living with a lung condition
We’ve put together a guide on welfare benefits for people living with a lung condition in England, Scotland and Wales. For support and benefits for carers, please see our caring for someone information.
If you live in Northern Ireland, take a look at the NI Direct page and the AdviceNI pages. You can also call the Benefit Enquiry Line 0800 232 1271 Monday to Friday 9am - 5pm or email [email protected]
For general advice on welfare benefits, give our helpline a call on 03000 030 555.
Find out if there is a BLF Support group or Singing for Lung Health group running in your area here, (some of our groups also run online on Zoom)
