Show Notes

Living with sight loss may entitle you to extra financial support to help with day-to-day costs, but do you know what you can claim? Our new mini series Bitesize Benefits will cover a range of topics related to financial support for those living with macular disease.

This episode is the first of three, focused on Personal Independence Payment (PIP). Join us as we explore what PIP actually is, who is entitled to it, and how you can apply.
