My friends mum has recently lost her husband, been married 40 years. She came from another country 40 years ago and only worked 3 of them years, the rest she stayed home. She has never claimed anything, other than child benefit. She is 61.
What will she be able to claim if anything? She is quite worried she will have to go to work, as she has had a heart bypass, and has two metal bars in her legs from where she broke them in a car accident 9 years ago.
