I concerned due to government cuts I may lose my pip. Plus the work situation isn’t great.

Hi @mark_75 Try not to worry too much. We will know more on the 26 March 2025 when we get the Spring Statement.

Take care.

Yes I’ve lost work due to my disability pip isn’t the golden ticket people think it is without I’d starve.

I just had mine done, filled forms in February last year, got a text in July to say they were looking at it, and then got a call out of the blue from health professional last month asking how my illness affects me, the call lasted about 5 minutes, then a text 14/2/25 to say the health professional has sent us their report, on 25/2/25 your review is complete, got a letter the other day saying I was awarded enhanced on both, fingers crossed for you

Cheers thanks for all the feedback. It’s causing me more sleepiness nights than usual. Disappointed in this Starmer government. This benefits cut runs contrary to everything I’ve been led to believe in the last six months. In terms of help I’ve received it’s not been substantive. Beginning to feel more estranged from society than ever.
