PIP REVIEW - DECISION GRANTED

Just want to say after waiting, since sending in my completed PIP review in January 2023 and having a telephone review call on 24th October, I have at last received my decision letter after a lot of worrying and ready for a fight.

I have gone from just having a standard award for the daily living needs to have been awarded the enhanced rate and also being awarded the standard rate for my mobility needs.

This will make such a difference for me with being able to get myself a cleaner to help me keep my home clean and I'm very grateful.

To all fibro warriors awaiting their PIP's decisions to just keep fighting for what we are all entitled to.

You need to fight it sweetheart. Did you ask to see the report that this was based on?

No and I know I should have but I’ve been struggling so much with pain, depression and anxiety. I am going to apply again in the new year.
