Hi @Gizmo691 - & welcome to this great community from me too, Paul. I'm doing fairly well, thank you for asking, I hope you are doing well too. There are other people here with your problems, so I'm sure you will find a lot of understanding. The links to our virtual 'Coffee lounge,' as well as other discussions can be found at the top of this page. I'm sure you'll enjoy being part of this community as it's both friendly & supportive.If you're trying to ring about PIP, it's a good idea to try first thing in the morning (they're open from 8am). Are you waiting to hear about a decision?

Hi @Gizmo691 and welcome also from me to the Community. How are you today? It's nice to meet you and thank you for sharing with us. I hope you managed to get hold of PIP and got on ok with it.
You will find this a really friendly forum full of lovely people as you have probably already discovered! I look forward to seeing you on here anyway. If we can be of any help/support to you then please just say. All the best.Winner of the Scope New Volunteer Award 2019. -
