Interest on savings is classed as income this is why it affect peoples benefits. Any savings or sums of money under £6000 is not taken into account at all when calculating benefits so your £2800 will have no affect on anything you receive.

Probably not enough for the injury you suffered, lol I don’t think you’ll have too much to worry about there, it’s not as if it’s a life changing amount.
