  • PIP and different claimant circumstances;
  • PIP and other benefits and services;
  • Forms and leaflets;
  • Information about welfare reform;
  • Common abbreviations; and
  • Where to go and who to contact for further help with PIP communications.

Separate versions of the publication have been produced for specific audiences including health professionals, carers and local authority staff.
