I have recently been awarded a higher rate of PIP (disability benefit) as my health has worsened. It was such a relief to receive and already my life has improved. It is amazing that such small things can have such a positive impact on health and wellbeing. I buy myself some fresh fruit each week, I buy more vegetables so I can 'eat a rainbow' again and we should be able to keep our car for another year. Best of all is that I have been on a day out once a month. Nothing fancy, just a drive to local country side or sea side with a picnic lunch and concessionary entrance fee to a sculpture park. The mood boost I got from going was fantastic and I still feel it now. At last I can use some of my Personal Independence Payment to improve my life instead of it barely paying for my survival.
