Not that I am aware of.
If you claim benefits (ie income support) your details get passed to the CSA who try and get money from the father, as their thinking is why pay income support when the father can pay instead.
In terms of benefits with absent fathers you get the income support and extra bits for the children, on top of the child benefit that all parents get (which is weird, isn't it!), plus a single parent allowance of about a fiver per week (unless its increased by now).
Oh, and don't forget satellite tv!!!
