Personal Independence Payments (PIP) and Mental Health

PIP is one of the most important benefits received by people with mental health problems. People will often need support making a claim to make the process as trouble-free as possible, and to ensure the best possible outcome.

Our guidance document offers advice and support to claimants with a mental health condition and their advisers. It offers positive suggestions about how to make a successful claim, and how to challenge erroneous decisions regarding PIP claims. There's also a PIP Mythbuster sharing insights from frontline staff at our Birmingham Community of Practice.
