We know many people have been worried about the proposed changes announced by the Government earlier this year to disability benefits mainly Personal Independence Payment (PIP). These changes were to come into for from November 2026.
The Government has now decided to wait until the key review into PIP and disability benefits has concluded. This will not be completed till early autumn 2026 and the Government will only propose any changes to PIP eligibility, activities and descriptors after this review.
We will continue to keep you updated and if you have any concerns, please contact the Advice Team on adviceteamreferrals@southwayhousing.co.uk or see our Contact Us page for other ways to get in touch.
