Hello Jaxonmacca70

I am sorry to hear that your GP can't help at the moment. It sounds like you have done this before, so you probably know how to fill it all in. Please do ask for some support with this if you find the paperwork hard to complete. I hate filling in forms.

In case anyone reading this wants to know a bit more about PIP here are a few useful links:

> PIP on the Mencap website - mencap.org.uk/advice-and-su...

> Citizens Advice - claiming PIP - citizensadvice.org.uk/benef...

> Turn 2 us - turn2us.org.uk/Benefit-guid... - I find this very easy to read and understand.

> Disability Rights UK - disabilityrightsuk.org/pers...

You can also call our helpline if you have any questions about PIP - call us on 0808 808 1111 or you can email [e-mail]

Best wishes

Sarah

Hi, never done this before as first pip 3 years ago was filled in by macmillan. I managed to get a welfare support to help fill in ,I've adjusted some of her comments,,I've been advised to use a highlight pen on my evidence to show the relevant facts ,is this true

I am so glad that you have had welfare support to fill it in. Great top tip about using the highlight pen on the evidence.

Best of luck
