Hello Yorkie 369

By representing you do you mean take them along with you?

You can take a friend or CAB rep with you but they aren't allowed to contrubute. Just make sure of 'fair play'.

Well done on getting an assessment so soon.

Good Luck You'll need it

Sorry my mistake. You can take someone as I said and yes they can speak if you want them too. Or hold your hand.

I have a medical next week for my ESA Benefit and I think they are the same really for both.

Take copies of any hospital letters etc to back up your claim and any doctor letters to show you have regular appointments.

Just be careful as they watch you from approaching the building and how you open doors, so if you say you have dexterity problems but you can open doors ok that may go against you. Just think before you answer the questions as well.

Good luck !!
