A Form for PIP Benefit Allowing Patients Be Assessed Who Can't Attend A Board!
Patients with a chronic illness can never be sure of how they will feel from one day to the next, I feel it would be appropriate that local government created a form to allow these people a chance to be assessed fairly as they may not be able to make it to their appointment.
As a Fibromyalgia Charity, we believe it is appropriate patients with this illness is given as much of an opportunity to be assessed fairly.
FIbro patients can't make plans to be in a certain place at a certain time, as they do NOT know how they are going to be on a day to day basis.
1 in 20 people in the UK struggle daily with Fibro, and the added preassure of having a board to go to can and does make their symptoms worse, leading them into a huge flare of chronic pains!
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept your petition in its current form as it does not call for a clear action from the UK Government and Parliament. You could start a petition calling on the Government to introduce a form for PIP for patients who can't attend an assessment interview.
We can only accept petitions from named individuals, not organisations.
