Hi all.
I have just joined and I'm looking for advice.
Imy currently on long term sick leave due to my Osteoarthritis becoming debilitating , constantly painful and now restricted my mobility.
I would like to ask. .how do I register as being disabled ?
And if anyone has any advice on filling in a PIP application form for Osteoarthritis. .would be much appreciated. Thank you x

Hi @Debster1
There is no longer a ‘register’ of disabled people so you don’t need to register.
There is a useful section about becoming disabled later in life, which should help you. Have a read and come back and ask us questions!
Best wishes, Alex

Hello Debster and welcome
It is important to understand the points system, descriptors and criteria for an award. A good place to stert is the B&W self test
