I know Statutory Maternity pay is increasing from approx £140/wk to £145/wk in April - I can’t find any mention of Maternity Allowance is too?

Maternity allowance is likely to be the same as SMP. I'd imagine that'll be confirmed in the Spring Statement.0

All proposed benefit rates have already been published on the gov site - https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/proposed-benefit-and-pension-rates-2018-to-20190
