Agree with person above, thought that if you were doubly incontinent you automatically got 15 points.
Also thought that if you had terminal cancer you wouldn't be assessed. No mention of that here....
Looks like I wouldn't now get many points at all whereas before, some time ago, was sure I would be OK

I get HRM which enables me to get out of my house for a few hours once a week. It also enables me to stay in full time employment although I do work from home some of the time. This £49 which I have exchanged for a motability car with seat high enough for me enables me to stay in full time employment. I do not claim any other benefits, in fact most months I pay out £1200 in tax, NI and student loan. If this is taken away from me I will not be able to afford to buy the car and will therefore be housebound. Then this £49 per week which will be saved by DWP will actually cost the country a lot more.
I have asked Motability that if this happens can I pay the £49 per week myself and they said no I have to be in the HRM scheme. As I dont have a wheelchair I only score 10 points.
I thought I in PIP was for Independence.

well this would take mine away
