No, and pip isn’t means tested,

No
Pip is not means tested you could be a millionaire and still claim PIP
Lottery wins unless it takes you over the savings threshold do not need to be declared for any benefits
Well done by the way something towards your xbox when you find one -
Congratulations ?

Sorry should say being so Honest

A win is a win, as above PIP isn't means tested, that said if you are on IB ESA and your win takes your capital over £6,000 you'd have to tell them.2024 The year of the general election...the time for change is coming 💡

Well I've won twice so far this week, hopefully a win on Euromillions is on the cards tonight, either that or winning on the main draw tomorrow night.
