I'm not sure if you are looking for advice on where to go with this decision regarding your DLA Mobility.

As the decision you have received was from a Tribunal, you only have two options.

The first is to seek leave to appeal the decision to the Upper Tribunal, however, in order for you to do this you must show that that there has been an error in law by the Lower Tribunal. If you think there has, then you will need to seek professional advice as this is not something you can pursue on your own.

Alternatively, you can re-present your case for DLA, perhaps with additional evidence supporting your case for the Mobility component. You need to be aware that by doing this, the DWP will also look at the care component again, which could result in your losing it. Again, I think you should seek independant advice, from someone who can look at all the facts and help you make a decision on what you should do.

Hope this helps
