My name is Georgia, I'm a student at the University of Leeds studying for a masters in Disability Studies. I have a disability myself, epilepsy, and was recently rejected for PIP after being on DLA for 5 years. This rejection has inspired me to find other peoples stories of rejection, with a particular focus on people with hidden disabilities so I can write a thesis exploring the idea that the assessment discriminates against people with hidden disabilities.
