We have submitted our response to the Timms Review.

Our May Forum was dedicated to providing a space for our members and local Deaf and Disabled people and carers to have their say on Personal Independence Payment (PIP).

We used this feedback to write our response to the Timms Review call for evidence.

If you were not able to attend our event, you can still submit your response directly to the Timms Review before 11.59pm on 28th May 2026.
