Building a Better System? Members Talk PIP, WCA, and Employment

Members Make the Difference Series: Building Change Together
Join us for an open discussion where your experiences and insights take centre stage. This month, we’re focusing on Personal Independence Payment (PIP), Work Capability Assessments (WCA), and employment challenges.
What to Expect:
- Hear from fellow members about their lived experiences.
- Share your thoughts on what works, what doesn’t, and what needs to change about work.
- Contribute to conversations that will help shape the future policy priorities of Difference North East.
This facilitated session will last one hour, with breakout groups if attendance allows. It’s a space for open, honest, and empowering conversations that reflect our shared commitment to community, solidarity, and change.
