Looking for a UK case study: someone with Long Covid and/or ME who receives PIP and works, and who would have to stop or reduce work if they lost PIP. Need to have spoons to speak on Zoom - possibly with an MP, to help prep for a debate (details tbc). Please DM.

🚨1/5. Cutting PIP will:   ⚠️ Push people further away from work   ⚠️ Increase poverty   ⚠️ Drive decline in health & independence   See what people said below ⬇️   📧 Contact your MP today & ask them to oppose the proposed welfare changes!!   #LongCovid #TakingThePIP
1/3 ❌PIP cuts will be devastating for people with #LongCovid and #ME Our new briefing shows these reforms will push people further from work, deepen poverty & worsen health. We’re calling on MPs to oppose the cuts-help us flood their inboxes. Link to briefing & how to act⬇️

Current PIP criteria already fail people with energy-limiting conditions. Proposed changes will deepen this injustice, with devastating consequences. @JoPlattLeigh backs our call for a system that supports people with #LongCovid in @BigIssue Link in next tweet.

This #VolunteersWeek we say a huge ‘Thank you!’ to all our fantastic volunteers who have made our charity what it is. Nearly all have #LongCovid themselves or are care givers to someone with Long Covid. Thank you for giving your precious energy to helping so many others. 💖💖💖
