“One-in-six (16 per cent) working-age PIP recipients do not report extra costs linked to their disability.” That’s pretty disturbing, clearly it’s not working.

Ever heard of the social model of disability? Clearly not. What prevents participation includes other people's negative attitudes/discrimination, environmental barriers, inaccessible communications, organisation of services etc, extra costs therefore incurred. Not a disabled person's incapacity 🤦‍♀️
