I am a chronically ill Independent PIP Consultant with the goal of providing the kind of support and awareness I WISH was available when I first became chronically ill (I was 29 years old, I am now 47). 

I am entitled to and do claim PIP myself; this funding changed my life. The Government's recent decision to introduce a new rule is threatening this lifeline for those who have fought through the invasive, degrading assessment process and finally won. They/we depend on this support. 

They are saying you now need a MINIMUM score of 4 points in at least ONE daily living activity to keep/get the daily living funding from 2026 (new claims and on reviews). This change WILL deny access to the daily living component to those who are genuinely in need but cannot score the 4 points in a single activity. We know through our experiences the way the scores are allocated rarely match our daily life, many should have had 4 points but do not get this result. 

The Government must reconsider this change. We MUST protect the most vulnerable among us and ensure their dignity through compassionate support. Therefore, we need to urge our Government to reassess this new rule. 

We need 100,000 signatures and then this (legally) must be discussed in parliament. I am not trying to be our spokesperson but I am trying to unite us. We need to raise our voices so loudly that activists and specialists can continue fighting on our behalf. This is how we help ourselves and those that cannot fight for themselves.

Remember, YOU, your family, friends, neighbours and co-workers CAN all sign this petition

It is NOT acceptable to target a vulnerable community WE MUST SPEAK UP and be HEARD

Please, sign this petition now, please sign for the chronically ill, sign for fairness, and sign for justice.
