There are three benefits available if your partner has died. They are bereavement allowance, which is paid for 52 weeks, bereavement payment which is a lump sum payment and widowed parents allowance which is paid if you are caring for a child.
You can find out more information about bereavement benefits in our bereavement benefits factsheet. If you want more detailed information you should see Disability Alliance's Disability Rights Handbook.
