Esa & pensions

Hi I dont know if im on the right thread here but here goes.
Question: my OH has recently gone onto ESA as he has alzheimers, I have now found out that I can draw down on a small pension soon, it will be over the 6,000 savings allowed. Obviously if I take it I will inform DWP but once the money has been used/spent will he be able to claim ESA again or do they decide how much that money should last for. I want to use the money to fulfil a bucket list he has and to make memories for him in the form of photos etc for him to have something to look at later on.
thank you
