Charity launches handy PIP tool to help people make successful claims up to £737

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

A leading charity, Turn2us, has launched a new online tool designed to simplify the tricky Personal Independence Payment (PIP) application process for disabled individuals and those with long-term health conditions seeking financial aid.

The innovative PIP Helper, developed in collaboration with PIP claimants and health charities, offers step-by-step guidance, award estimations, mental wellbeing resources, and crucial information.

According to Turn2us, one in three disabled people in the UK live in poverty and face significant additional daily costs - on average £1,010 each month more than non-disabled households.

Administered by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), PIP provides up to £737.20 every four weeks to assist people with disabilities, long-term illnesses or physical or mental health conditions with extra daily living and/or mobility costs.
