Now is the time to write to your MP especially if the seat is marginal

If you claim any benefit now. Given the current political climate where the government maybe more receptive to the issues you face. It is a good idea to remind your MP of the issues you face living with HIV.

If you don't claim any benefits at the present time. What is being allowed to happen today. May affect you in the future should you find yourself in the situation where you need to claim for benefits.

Either way, please write to your local MP if only to raise the issues facing all of us who live with this illness. Problems with benefits, loss of the 10p starting rate of tax or any issues you face trying to maintain full time employment.
