    Hello and welcome @jimstuart1 and thanks for reaching out. I can appreciate that the stories in the news are anxiety inducing to say the least, and a worry for many disabled people.

    It might be helpful to stay away from reading the news for a while, to help take your mind off things, and you are welcome to chat about things here of course!

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

    If there's anything we can help with, please let us know.
