A Scot from Ayrshire, helped by Martin Lewis, has been awarded £5,700 in benefit back payments from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and received the maximum award for Personal Independence Payment (PIP).
Christopher first appeared on the Martin Lewis Money Show Live in January to share how he is living with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome - a chronic connective tissue disorder that affects his entire body - and had applied for PIP in May 2021, but was still waiting on an outcome, some nine months later, and was living off £86 per month in DWP payments.
During an hour-long cost of living crisis special, Martin shared a short film showing Christopher at home talking about what has happened since he first appeared on the show.
