[QUOTE="Pipp, post: 1884975, member: 100904"] Anyone being called for a DWP assessment for a health related benefit such as PIP or ESA, has a right to have the assessment in an accessible environment. If , when informed an assessment is due, the claimant makes their access needs known the DWP has a legal requirement to make that correct provision. If necessary, and verified by GP the assessment can take place in tne claimants home. The following resource may be of use to anyone unsure if they are entitled to a PIP award. [USER=32874]@cazzyann1[/USER] section 3 seems to be relevant to your circumstances, but others may also be relevant. [URL]http://www.mybenefitsandwork.co.uk/pip/indexxx.php[/URL] The main website of that organisation is also useful when it comes to benefit claims and appeals. [URL="http://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk"]www.benefitsandwork.co.uk[/URL] As is this one... [URL]https://www.scope.org.uk/support/disabled-people/money/pip/faqs[/URL] If you decide to appeal, remember to act quickly as there is a time limit, it helps if you can have an advocate, so perhaps you could get advice from Citizens Advice Bureau, or Welfare Benefits Agency.
