My pip is due for reassessment Sept next year.
I scored 3 for bathing last time.
I thought I was elligeable for 4 and also higher scores for other daily living activities but I didn't challenge it as i was awarded high rate.
At my next reassessment form I will go into a lot more detail and get a more detailed supporting letter from my carer.
We have to fight this because our very existence depends on it.

If anyone watched pmqs how heartless starmer is, one backbench mp stated that one of his constituents relys on her children to feed , wash, and dress her and she is going to lose her pip. He just dismiss it.and Diane Abbot again said about a million will lose pip, anf it wasnt moral he just brought in about young people not in anything. She didn't mention young people. She was fuming after. Yet he said he had family who were disabled . Callous cold hearted. I hope they rebell against it

I wouldn't trust this government as far as I could throw them. All we can do is push back on these proposals. Nearly everyone I've spoken to personally is going to be affected by these changes in one way or another.😔

Can anyone advise please, I get esa and pip, I'm unsure about the points thing I've no idea what I got or how to find out.
Is it the case that if been on esa and pip for a while nothing changes and the merger of esa jsa is just for new claimants? Is it all starting Nov 2026 and people seem to be worried when others say most of it won't go through because of the courts..
Thanks

Hi, I would like some advice if possible about the 4 point system, I've looked at my recent award which I was granted for another 4 years from December just gone. I always thought I should have got 4 points minium for mixing with people but I got a 2. Now I have read the discriptor for this activity a bit more, which I should have done at first, but was soooo stressed! I surmised I could actually get the 8 points as I would have major panic attacks and self harm with mixing outside etc. I think my problem is I don't know how to write it down properly to explain how it affects me on adaily basis, so any advice would be very helpful and much appreciated for when I am next reveiwed, thanks.

Very true to both comments. I have friends and family - disabled and non disabled, some were Labour some were more never-Tories. Some occasionally voted for Tories but weren't fans of Tories (don't ask). What I do know is that none of them will vote Tory again, and none of them will vote Labour again. It's defiantely going to be interesting. The big wolf in the room is will this enable Farage/Reform to sweep in. But the thing is Labour can't keep getting away with this **** - they keep going after vulnerable people - this isn't a one off and frankly even if it was it's unforgiveable.

hi all
I am on standard daily living, first award 6 years ago with 8 pts, also standard mobility
3 years ago with 10 pts for standard, got enhanced mobility
Never had 4 pts on one, been 2pters etc, bit concerned
Even if I had 4 pter would be dubious they don’t put it to 3 when changes happen, get 12 pts or more, no 4 pts on any!
Also just recently sent my review form back, award was till September 2025, now had to do new review form which was bit nightmare even for cab!
Conditions have worsened, dubious they are already going to sneakily carry out my review along new guidelines, don’t trust them, very stressful
Maybe it’s better now than November 2026, or is it?

The new guidelines won't come into place this year so they can't do that.

Yes I intend to do that.
I will go into much more detail on all of the daily living activities.
