Disabled people know best how to manage their own lives and finances; what they need is trust, fair support, and recognition of the extra costs they face, not surveillance.

Pain, especially when it’s invisible or fluctuating, is difficult to measure, explain, and prove. The PIP assessment system, designed to support people with additional care or mobility needs, often falls short in recognising the daily impact of pain, leaving many to feel dismissed, doubted, or denied.
