Hi @dcole123, and a warm welcome to the community!
Thanks for sharing this with us, and I'm sorry to hear about your redundancy. You've had some brilliant advice above, so do have a look at those links. Another page that may be useful is the online PIP self-test, to give you an idea of your possible entitlement to PIP.
Feel free to come back to us with any further questions and our members will do their best to advise!0
