I receive housing element of UC for 1 bedroom however I need to apply for it to cover my 2nd bedroom for my carer (mum). I’ve looked everywhere I can think of (including council website, universal credit website, citizens advice, various benefits and disability sites) but find no definitive criteria nor even who to apply to. I live in England. Any pointers gratefully received:)
Your question is outside the scope of this forum. I tried to see if I could find anything and the only thing that comes up is to speak to your local council and the housing department. The CAB has information about a bedroom for carers www.citizensadvice.org.uk/benefits/help-...%20live%20with%20you.
