    You can spend the PIP payments however you wish, there are no limitations.

    On Wednesday, i went to my old care home to visit everyone. My cousin was giving me a lift, but she needed money for petrol. I gave her £10 for petrol.

    You can use the money any way you wish and it's nice that it’s there to be used at the point of need.
