in Start here and say hello

Hello my name is Kit. I'm in my late 60's and disabled due to three cancers. I am currently in remission. I receive a PIP to help me with getting around and preventing accidents like falling or burning myself

    Adding I have a tiny state pension of £335 a month and rely totally on my husband for finance and driving me around. If I lose my PIP I will be entirely reliant on him. It may sound petty but I have very little independence as it is without losing what I have.

    Hi @kitb20 and welcome to the community. 🙂

    Hopefully we'll receive a bit more clarity during the announcement today but it's important to remember this is just the very initial proposals and there'll be a period of consultation etc. allowing us an opportunity to respond to these. Hopefully you'll find the online community a safe place. A place where we can come together and support one another during this time.
