in Start here and say hello!

Im new here, I'm not very good with messaging and tech. I'm terrified about the changes the DWP are proposing. I can't get out alone, I can't be in alone without my dog. I have really bad mental health and I can't work because of it. I don't know what I would do if they change the criteria, I'm afraid I wouldn't qualify. I'm seriously considering ending it all right now

    Good Afternoon everyone I’m unclear on the proposed changes to pip. Are they considering changing the eligibility criteria. For example increasing the number of points you need to be awarded pip.

    I’m currently undergoing a pip review which started in December 2024. I have recently received a text from the DWP. Saying it’s being processed and I may need a consultation with a health professIonal. Anyone know what is just speculation or may become part of the changes?
