Why Medical Evidence Should Replace Biased PIP Assessments

A letter from your GP, along with copies of your medical history, is crucial for a successful PIP claim. These documents provide solid evidence of your condition, detailing your symptoms, treatments, and how the disability affects your daily life. By presenting medical records, you offer a comprehensive view of your needs, ensuring the decision-making process is based on factual and reliable information. This approach increases the accuracy of your claim and helps prevent any potential discrepancies or delays.

Why Social Media Is Endangering Our Children, Urgent Action Is Needed

Social media is not an innocent pastime for children; it is a powerful, addictive force that can shape their self-worth, behaviour, and future in dangerous ways. Without immediate action, more young lives will be damaged or lost, and the cycle of harm will continue unchecked. The responsibility lies with all of us, parents, schools, lawmakers, and tech companies, to act now. Banning phones in schools, enforcing strict age verification, and introducing robust child-safety laws are not optional measures; they are urgent necessities. We cannot afford to wait for another tragedy to spur change. The time to protect our children is today.
