Over-80s pension and Over-80s addition

If you are over 80 and are not entitled to the Basic Pension at all, or only to a proportion of the full rate (up to 60%), you can claim the non-contributory (category D) pension for the over-80s. The pension is worth £66.65 a week. You can request a claim form from your local pension centre or benefits office.

If you are getting either the Basic Pension or the Over-80s pension, you are also entitled to an over-80s payment of 25p per week.
