Text asks if PIP and financial insecurity experiences will be heard in the Timms Review. Below, two people, one in a wheelchair, converse at a table.
Text on orange background about PIP claimants facing financial insecurity, underrepresentation, and potential impact of review changes. Text: Most PIP claimants have experience of financial insecurity, with 28% of disabled people living in poverty. Without clear plans on what's next, we are concerned that the voices of people who have lived experience of receiving PIP and financial insecurity may be underrepresented. This group will be particularly affected by any changes to PIP that come out of the Review.
Quote on orange background about PIP's importance for safety and housing, highlighting unease due to lack of representation. By Roxie, Z2K Expert. Text: "For people like me, PIP is not an abstract policy issue. It is what keeps us safe, housed, warm, and able to cope. When a process is presented as fair, transparent and grounded in lived experience, but I cannot see people who reply on PIP to survive reflected at steering level, it creates a deep unease." Roxie, Z2K, Expert by Experience
We’ve joined with disabled people, organisations and charities to write to the co-chairs of the Timms Review.

For blind people, it’s not a glass ceiling, it’s a locked door.
Perhaps, instead of punitive cuts and demonisation in the media, the #DWP and #TimmsReview should turn their attention to where this problem starts, not where it ends - a discriminatory employment landscape. 3/3
The Department for Work and Pensions has refused to rule out spending cuts to personal independence payment when it completes a year-long review that is being headed by the disability minister.

The report clearly lays out this reality - and provides recommendations for reframing the system, building trust and ensuring dignity and respect through the #TimmsReview.
After all, just because you've got a bit less money than others, it doesn't mean you don't deserve to be treated well.
DPAC Cymru met with Senedd members, calling on the Welsh government to do its part and support an independent PIP review led by disabled people and our organisations, not UK disability minister Stephen Timms.

It lays bare the urgent need for reform built on dignity, fairness, and trust. As the #TimmsReview begins and the government's welfare reforms continue, our solutions will demonstrate how the government can deliver a more efficient, effective and compassionate system.

🚨 #TimmsReview is, at best, a pause. At worst, it’s a strategic delay designed to give the illusion of listening while buying time to repackage and reintroduce the same cuts with a veneer of consultation.@VoxPolitical ⬇️

The #TimmsReview won’t stop PIP cuts — it’s a distraction. Disabled people are being used to rubber-stamp austerity. Here’s what’s really going on. #PIPcuts #DisabilityRights #DWP #CoProduction
