TEENAGERS are more likely to receive disability benefits than individuals in their 20s or 30s, research has revealed.
A study from the Resolution Foundation found that 1.2 million children across England and Wales are living with a disability, with the most significant increase among teenagers.
More than 682,000 young people received the Child Disability Living Allowance (DLA) in 2023, up from 333,000 in 2013.
