UK Edition: PIP at 16 Family Guide: DLA to PIP Claim Planner, SEND, KS4 and Post-16

A family guide to moving from Disability Living Allowance to Personal Independence Payment around age 16. It explains the general process, what an appointee is, and the daily living and mobility areas PIP looks at.

An evidence diary helps families record real examples of what support is needed and how long things take, which is the kind of detail assessments look for. A claim planner and checklist keep track of letters, forms and deadlines.

General information only, not benefits advice. Check GOV.UK and talk to a local advice service before claiming. 7 A4 pages.
