I got help to fill in my successful PIP application.

I used this organisation.

Citizens Advice's website has some information and they will help you too.

Good luck!

There's loads of support for benefits out there. Have Calling the local CAB? They’re doing most stuff over the phone these days

I think that's an understatement!🤔 CAB usually first place to ask, often they provide help with filling out forms. Most of their volunteers are experienced in filling in this form, and some organisations will help if you need to go to tribunal if first attempt is turned down.Good luck.

Hi our local council, I live in Scotland, have an advice works and I went and seen them, they were fantastic the woman I seen new exactly how to answer all of the questions, I would never have got it without her help, I think the citizen advice have the same service, I also trawled the Internet for help for the assessment which I found invaluable, I got awarded the highest amount for both elements and what a difference it has made, if to ask me anything, just send a message, take care char

Join the website "Benefits and Work" They have absolutely masses of help. I've been a member since gosh 20 years ago. Give 10 times more information than the form asks for. If you can't do something, explain what you have tried and why it didn't work. Add extra pages, don't be restricted by the boxes. EG if you can't cook a meal say why, say what happens. They will try to say you could use a microwave meal but that is NOT a suitable substantial meal. Explain everything in detail but do get help from benefits and work. It's a few pounds a year but WELL worth it.
