I’ll admit I don’t know if Purple Ella but I think you’re being incredibly judgemental and don’t seem to understand disability or pip. Disabled people can live full lives and claiming pip shouldn’t hinder that either. An extreme example but the great Stephen Hawking would have been able to claim as he would have had additional care needs but he’s done things, been places and delivered speeches most of us could only dream of.My conditions prevent me from doing many of the activities listed, but with the right preparation and adaptations most people can do most things. In fact a friend of mine I know receives PIP has just gotten back from 2 weeks in Disney World. Given that he’s a permanent wheelchair user it took more planning, expense and his carer to go with the family but nothing stops him going on his adventures and why should it??
