I am right in thinking that no changes take place til November 2026. I currently waiting for a pip review and receiving lcwra. If the worse happens and I lose pip will I lose lcwra that helps with working less hours for my pain.

I am a carer and are considerably concerned over the proposed welfare cuts. I feel let down and betrayed by a government that traditionally values and looks after those most vulnerable. All this 'new Labour' government want to do is steal from the poorest and most vulnerable instead of recovering lost revenue through a…

I'm concerned and worried the government are using the most vulnerable as scapegoats, maybe stop investing in wars and invest in the country, they're using us to hide their failings. The cuts are concerning to cut it in half next year is too cut my bills and food supply worse than it already is. And then too scrap lcwra…

Hi hope all are ok. Just my thoughts on this Green paper as I’m aware many many of you here will be in a panic and understandably so. I personally find it very very hard to believe that the change in eligibility for pip with 4 points needed from 1 descriptor will ever see the light of day. Do not forget these are proposals…

I'm deeply distressed about the proposed pip cuts that people won't get the daily living unless they score at least 4 points in a discriptor. This means I will lose my daily living because I get 2s and 3s in all discriptors even though I can not bath without help or cook without help. But they still gave 2 points. But also…

Was anyone else getting angry listening to Liz Kendall stand in front of the nation telling them what people with mental health problems NEED🥴 People with mental health problems already feel pathetic and unheard without her belittling us infront of the whole country. I scored 4 points on one of the daily living components…

I am confused. So is lcwra being scrapped for existing claimants ? The standard universal credit rate going up is that for everyone? Also when all these changes start How do you have to claim pip to be able not look for work

hi , can anyone help me on scoring 4 points in a single category for mental health as my pip review is due soon 😦 I’ve already sent the forms back months ago though just waiting to hear back from them now.

hi all I am on standard daily living, first award 6 years ago with 8 pts, also standard mobility 3 years ago with 10 pts for standard, got enhanced mobility Never had 4 pts on one, been 2pters etc, bit concerned Even if I had 4 pter would be dubious they don’t put it to 3 when changes happen, get 12 pts or more, no 4 pts…

Hi, I claim PIP for MH reasons. I recently put in a change of circumstance and waiting to be contacted about an assessment. I've seen so many people on socials saying they're making it harder to claim PIP for MH and even might scrap PIP altogether. I'm just really worried as this along with UC LCWRA really help me and I'm…

Do you think the people that are awarded the 10 year award and receive a light touch review at the end of that period, that their PIP will be cut too or do you think these people in this bracket will likely be left alone? Thanks

I am allowed to do permitted work. I also get pip mobility component. If these proposals were to go ahead I would lose everything. Would I be able to claim…

Not been a good day for me today, I'm so worried about the proposed benefit cuts. I have fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue and osteoarthritis. I get standard daily living but didn't score 4 points in one area so I'm likely going to lose my pip allowance. I was given a 10 year ongoing award last November with a light touch…

Following today's green paper I am concerned that I will lose my daily living allowance. I currently receive the standard rate. I am 71 years old and due for a "soft touch" review at the end of 2027. I scored 9 points (total) back in 2017 for the daily living section & 12 points for the mobility section. What worries me is…

I’m posting because I need some clarification regarding today’s changes. For the daily living component, I see that it mentions if we score more than four points in an activity such as preparing food, eating and drinking, managing treatments, washing and bathing, managing toilet needs, dressing and undressing,…

I am a pensioner 71 years of age, I was born with Spina Bifida. I get the higher rate of PIP so will these new changes afffect me as an existing claimant?

I scored 13 points in total for daily living, on the one category I had 4 points, anyone know what that mean for me, my head is all over the place. Thanks in advance

I've listened to the government and don't understand what she has said Is new style ESA support group being abolished? I've heard her say contribution based JSA and ESA are going to be time limited....is that new style ESA?

Hi, after today's news on benefits can someone tell me I get lcwra on a single claim and work as courier driver part time. Also get pip daily living for my mentel health condition off 12 years. Does it mean my lcwra will stop now or in 2028. My pip due for reassessment before Feb 2027.

was just wondering after all this information was given today by. Liz Kendall., whether someone could explain to me as I am on the new style Esa and in the support group.. is this being scrapped? What will I receive now? As I am and have neuropathy and cannot work anymore? TIA
