Recent analysis by Policy in Practice discovered that the total amount of unclaimed income-related benefits and social tariffs is nearly £19 billion each year.
The research found that an estimated £2 billion in Carer’s Allowance is unclaimed by half a million eligible households across Scotland, England and Wales each year.
This means people are missing out on £3,991 in unclaimed benefits this year as the benefit, delivered by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), is worth £76.75 per week, or £307 each monthly pay period.
