Hi,
I'm new here, please be kind
I'm new here, please be kind
Some of you might like to know about an official Petition calling for fairer PIP Assessments and a fairer PIP Claims System, which is on the Official Gov petitions site.
Petition closes April 2021.
Here is the link:
PIP claimants might be very interested in signing this petition, and then sharing with friends, family, and other Disability groups and organisations.
Btw, I didn't start this petition, I just saw it on another Disability website forum, and am trying to spread the word.
Thanks!?

It overwhelms the court system when incorrect decisions need to be challenged. This is completely inaccurate. Far from being overwhelmed tribunals currently don’t have enough work to do.

Waiting times for Tribunals have decreased considerably since the start of the pandemic and i believe the average waiting time is about 6-7 months. Before Covid it was more like 12+ months.
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
