Client stories
Sharon’s Story
Sharon lives with her husband in social housing and is unfit to work due to severe health conditions, including osteoarthritis and severe anxiety and depression. Despite receiving PIP since 2016, her benefits were reduced following a review in April 2023, leading to significant anxiety and a lengthy appeals process.
