My friend is in the support group following a brain heamorage last year. She has just been offered ill health retirement from her public sector job and will receive a pension of approx £25,000 a year - will she still be able to continue get her ESA Support group benefit as well or will it be reduced or removed altogether as she will receive a good ill health pension?

I think it likely but they should get face to face advice from their local CAB or Welfare Rights office.
