Hi everyone, hope you are all safe and well!!
I just wanted to give people positive news, I have been awarded 4 years again on my renewal, Special needs and going to a special needs unit was a big factor the decision maker said. she said with it bring a life long condition that’s not going to change anytime soon with other factors ( as well ), gave me the award. I really didn’t think they would take going to a special needs school into account! but the DM she said we take priority with people with learning difficulties ect ect. so anyone that’s got it apply!!! as they said it does help!

Hi,That's great news. Although i'm a little confused. In another thread of yours from last week you said your PIP review was due in about September? Surely you didn't have your form and return it within the very short space of time
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -
Hi @poppy123456 loads of new evidence got sent over 2 months ago and it’s obviously worked in my favour.
