Here we will put details of tribunal case law that although not directly or specifically deal with HIV/AIDS may prove of interest given that they establish the understanding of the "rules" as part of the legal process. You may find decisions that, may broadly apply to your situation and if you are making an appeal you may find it useful to site them. We would always advise you get professional support when making an appeal. There are time limits for making an appeal. The Tribunal Service is http://www.tribunals.gov.uk/ & Decisions are found http://www.osscsc.gov.uk/Decisions/decisions.htm

The Spending Review 2010, announced on 20 October 2010, confirmed the Department's commitment to reform and the introduction of the Work Programme.
The Work Programme represents a step change for Welfare to Work in this country, creating a structure that treats people as individuals and allows providers greater freedom to tailor the right support to the individual needs of each customer."

Universal Credit is a radical new approach to welfare:
• It will bring together different forms of income-related support and provide
a simple, integrated, benefit for people in or out of work.
• It will consist of a basic personal amount (similar to the current Jobseeker’s
Allowance) with additional amounts for disability, caring responsibilities,
housing costs and children.
• As earnings rise, we expect Universal Credit will be withdrawn at a constant
rate of around 65 pence for each pound of net earnings. Higher earnings
disregards will also reinforce work incentives for selected groups.
When introduced, Universal Credit will initially apply to new claims. It will be phased in for existing benefit and Tax Credit recipients. There will be no cash losers at the point of change, ensuring that no one will see their benefits reduced when Universal Credit is introduced.

Here we wanted to encourage you to leave information on purely social events that HIV people can engage with.
We are looking for you to feed back on your personal recommendations of places you have been to socialise, bars, clubs and events.
Living with HIV can be quite isolating especially if you are newly diagnosed.
You may want to socialise but lack confidence, want to feel safe and want to feel you are in a HIV friendly environment.
Although we cannot be held liable for any recommendation. We do believe that those with HIV and have the information through first hand experience is the best form of recommendation.
This is not a forum for "advertising" your business nor will we publish content that may be libellous.
If you have had a bad experience following a recommendation here, email to john@tcell.org.uk stating why and I will remove it.
