Hello @jamie2471 I can appreciate that the stories in the news are anxiety inducing to say the least, and a worry for many. It might be helpful to stay away from reading the news for a while, to help take your mind off things. 

The key thing to remember is, no changes to PIP or Attendance Allowance have been confirmed by the government as things stand. 

I hope it's not a rainy Sunday where you are, and please ask if we can help with anything else
