End of award (awarded by tribunal) what next?

Hi all, I was awarded a 4 year award from a successful tribunal back in September 2019, it was backdated to September 2017 so it is coming to an end this year. 

I have been sent a letter from PIP asking me to contact them if I wish to still get help. I’m wondering if anyone might be able to tell me what this entails? Will I be starting an entirely new claim again? 

Thank you

    Hi and welcome 

    If your award was won at tribunal then yes you need to do a new claim 

    This is because it wasn't awarded by dwp

    You will need to make a new claim. You need to ring them to start this.
    Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK.
