I've gone through all the benefits and work stuff but personal real life stories are better. How can I win? Any tips? Where I live there are no agencies to represent me, tried CAB, local council and DIAL, all have lost their funding and have no one to help. Please any help so I know how to represent myself.

Hi ,I went to mine last tuesday.Got lower rate care,which was better than nothing. With hindsight, I think I should have stressed to them about problems with my mobility,and took a letter of support from my GP. But the panel were very nice and they do give you chance to tell them about your day to problems. Good Luck. Take Care x
