    I have seen on another site,a form for your GP to fill in .It supposed to be for pip. 
    You have to be a member which I think the charge is £19 ? But it will let you assess files ect to help.

    I think £19 is a lot of money when you are on basic benefits.Though if I could afford it ,I would !
    But then it's a choice between heat electric or food to cut for 2wks.

    Yes I agree ! 
    I can't afford to pay it,but stressing if I do it could make a difference to getting pip.
    But I think it is wrong to pay for information about us .
