pip renewal text received

Poppyseed29

Hi Everyone 

My current award is until end of April. I received a text about my review on 28th August. just waiting on the form. I was awarded enhanced for both when I last applied. since then I have been given aids such a bath board, stool for the shower, bed rail and toilet frame. I didn't have these aids when I made my current pip claim. Will having these aids affect my pip decision? I still struggle with these aids but I'm not waiting around for someone to come help me. I also suffer from from anxiety and panic attacks. I have since been given a diagnose of complex PTSD. I was awarded pip for 4 years and my mental health practitioner said I should get it for longer. I didn't have as much evidence the last time. I'm just confused about if having mobility aids has a negative or positive affect on the outcome. Its my first review since getting pip.
any advice or information would be appreciated.
Thank you

Hey there @Poppyseed29 and a belated welcome to the community!  

I noticed you'd not had any replies here, so I just wanted to check in and see if you've had any luck in your search for answers?  Hopefully by me posting again, it'll help other community member see your post and offer some support.  

From personal experience, I found having a walking aid helped my PIP reassessment, because I could prove that the issues I was claiming for did have a major effect on my day to day life.
