Benefits and SR1 or DS1500

Hi , if you know where you're local Maggie's centre is? They are brilliant and will help you 

Hi,

Thanks for quick response.

Maggie? You mean Macmillan?

Gary

No Maggie's , it as centres spread out the  UK they help people with cancer and benefits and do free courses it's a walk in centre, you will have to Google you're nearest one and good luck , they are brilliant

Hi Gary, www.maggies.org as Lee says they are very helpful, If your having problems with your PIP phone Macmillan 0808 808 00 00 to find your nearest Macmillan hub to help you through it, and if PIP are being reluctant ask your consultant to write a couple of words and sign it, Remember when filling the form to answer the questions describing your wife's worst days. I think you are entitled to universal credit and depending on prognosis the amount could double, PS i do claim PIP but UC is from what others have told me

Hello Gary1957 

i see you have already had some cracking advice from other Community members. I can agree with the other posters, Maggie's are great at this sort of thing and our Support line on 0808 808 00 00 (8am to 8pm 7 days a week) can also help.

I have also put up a link to our services which you may find of help-

If I can do anything else for you please let me know.

Best wishes - Brian

Thanks
