Our campaign
We know the PIP evaluation process is already not working for people with epilepsy.
It doesn’t properly assess the impact epilepsy has on daily life, and the fluctuating nature of the condition.
Now, proposed changes to the disability benefits are awarded and assessed could reverse the small progress made so far.
People could lose vital support.
These changes are not being consulted on by the government.
We want the government to rethink the entire reform.
Be an advocate
People with epilepsy are already paid 26.9% less than their non-disabled counterparts.
Life costs more when you have a disability.
People could be left in debt, just to survive.
If you could be affected by these changes, or simply don’t think people with a disability should have vital benefits taken away, join us.
We will send your MP a “Don’t Take the PIP” card on your behalf. We’ll explain why these cuts could be disastrous for people with epilepsy, and ask them to join forces with us in asking the government to rethink them.
