The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has released a series of four new videos about Personal Independence Payment (PIP) to help people understand what the benefit is, who it is for, how to claim and the assessment process. The YouTube videos are accompanied by a new online document that explains five key things people should know about PIP.
Throughout the four videos, there is signposting to the dedicated PIP pages on GOV.UK where there is more detailed information, including the process for people nearing the end of life. People watching the videos on the official DWP YouTUbe channel are advised to consult the website to ensure they have information about PIP eligibility before making a new claim.
The latest statistics from the DWP show that at the end of January 2023, there were 3.25 million people across Great Britain claiming PIP including over 319,000 living in Scotland.
