In England can impact of race be included when claiming pip?
In England, if you have difficulties communicating or planning a journey because your cultural background, and skin colour makes you less safe/more likely to be attacked or discriminated against, can you add that in the form? E.g. it is not a disability but it massively affects if you can ask for help, what areas you may go in when planning a journey, people perceiving you as aggressive when you speak so you have to be extra careful, or having to constantly second guess your words because you don't have that white privilege protection others take for granted? Or if you have another protected characteristic like sexuality, or being female or trans and having to be cautious to protect yourself against assaults e.g..when mixing or having to ask a stranger for directions and that impacts your ability to manage day to day life, could you include that in the form?
Or could you put it as a result of trauma as a result of growing up Inna racist/transphobic etc. world and having to navigate it? My friend has autism and being somewhere where you are judged because of the autism is something he could put in his application, or struggling to ask for help for fear of being judged or taken advantage of because of autism was something he could write, so I wonder about if it is similar for race and other protected characteristics?
