Mine workers pension scheme

Posts: 3 Newbie
My mother was widowed last year and has been claiming bereavement allowance. She has since had a £20,000 lump sum from the mineworks pension scheme for my father and will be receiving £2.05 a week also. The bereavement allowance will end soon and she will go on ESA for a few months before she goes on pension. Does anyone know how this lump sum will effect her benefits?
