Good luck. Goes against the grain but try not to be brave. Tell it as it is at the worst moments.

Yes Katin is right. Remember that they are filming you from the time you drive into the car park Refuse to climb stairs and if they want you to walk outside I am sure that you will be far too worn out and breathless before you get out of the door. Good luck. The BB will make all the difference.

Yes the others have given you great advice. Walk as little as possible, don't climb stairs, go as slowly as you like & good luck! 😀

Its personal independence In my area if you don't claim this you have to have a assessment I was turned down for my blue badge because I did not claim benefit. Some areas wont consider you unless you claim benefits good luck I'm sure a blue badge will help you as mine does
