WRAG group work coach. was created by Ginny
Currently awaiting a Tribunal appeal outcome, and still adding notes in support of my claim as I think of them. Can anybody advise on the Work Coach interview? From Sept of last year, mine was never followed through. He heard on the phone my vocal outbursts associated with my epilepsy and did little to offer support.
I recontacted them yesterday just to be given a new appointment. Can they as Work coaches have any 'clout' as to your capability for work?
Thanks in advance.

Our experience on the forum is that they have not he faintest idea what the SG criteria are.

That really is unacceptable. They are there in a position to help find you work, but seemingly happy to find you anything dangerous or otherwise as long as they offload you from DWP.
Maybe as a group that really needs redress?

A decision that puts a claimemt in the Work Related Activity Group or stops Esa completly
does not exclude an action for Disability Discrimination against the Secretary of State and/or WRA Providers, providing the claiment meets the definition of Disabled in the relevent legislation

So this is always an option and there is some Anecdotal evidence that such a threat often gets results.
