Are you now able to access the PIP Claim guide as this is the best source of information in regard competing the form?

Although the use of Public Transport is referenced in the DWP issued Assessment Guidance, the actual legally defined criteria make no such reference and we have seen Decision Makers exclude problems with this when making a Decision, so it is not something to be relied upon.

The Going Out activity only considers problems that are a direct result of cognitive, mental health or sensory issues, physical issues are dealt with in the Moving Around activity.
