just like to say hello, I am Pete, 63 years old and just joined as I had questions about disability assessments and how long the decision takes to come through.

    Hi @Pete63 - & welcome to the community. Are you wondering about PIP assessments? If so, a decision can take anything from 2-12 weeks following one.

    I signed a petition, and got a notification I started by looking at the site because my daughter has just , at 17 been diagnosed as autistic

    Ah thanks for sharing @Pete63 and welcome from me too. How is your daughter feeling about her diagnosis?
