Disability Benefits Consortium launch new surveys
The Disability Benefits Consortium has launched four surveys to collect evidence on claimants’ experiences of:
- claiming PIP;
- the impact of moving from DLA to PIP;
- getting support with housing costs; and
- claiming ESA

The Disability Benefits Consortium want to launch a press release off the back of the ESA Big Benefits Survey findings. The responses they have had so far are really powerful, and they think there are going to be some fantastic news hooks in there. The only difficulty, is that they’ve only had around 330 responses to the survey so far, and, for them to get lots of media coverage, they really need at least 500 respondents.
They want to coincide a release with the Bill entering report stage in the Commons so need any responses by Friday 16th October
They are also looking for ESA case studies.
A reminder that DBC are still collecting survey results on the impacts of DLA reassessments to PIP and how the changes are affecting disabled people, people with long-term health conditions, and their carers - fill in the survey here -
