PIP & home adaptations since assessment, was created by LondonLady12
I have had some home adaptions done to my home since I was assessed & awarded PIP and I'm wondering do I need to inform them that I've had a disabled shower put in since my assessment as I got points for struggling to get in and out of the bath unassisted? I still have mobility issues and have to be careful showering so will it make a difference? Thanks

No you don't, the test is whether you can use an unadapted bath or shower, you don't actually have to have one of these in your home to score.

Thanks for clarifying Gordon, I was just worried as it said at the end of the PIP letters changes you must tell us about and I didn't know if this was one so thanks for putting my mind at rest.
