Hi Ally111
Welcome to the forum.
You might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explains where everything is;
www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/guides-for-claimants/faq/forum The short answer to your question is .... NO
Attendance Allowance is for claimants over state pension age and not in receipt of DLA or PIP.
The difference between AA and DLA is that there is no mobility component when you claim AA.
If you now have care needs then you need to contact DLA helpline: 0800 121 4600 and inform them of a change in your circumstances.
