Disability benefits 'not fit for purpose' and assessments 'dehumanising'

A recent report reveals that Personal Independence Payments (PIP) are fundamentally flawed and often hinder rather than help claimants in their return to work. The assessment process for these benefits is criticized as dehumanizing, stripping away the dignity of those seeking support. This matters because it shines a light on the systemic issues within the benefits system, highlighting the urgent need for reform to ensure these services genuinely support those in need rather than exacerbate their struggles.
