Thank you B&W was created by somegirl
Thank you to Benefits and Work for both the brilliant guides and the helpful and reassuring advice on the forum.

I've been granted enhanced daily living and enhanced mobility.

Thanks to the B&W guides the award was determined through a paper assessment using my application form and submitted evidence. You really helped me understand how to word answers.

After reading the guides I felt confident asking my clinicians to be more specific in their support letters. I explained what information the DWP required. I showed them your example answers and we went through each question together. I am very lucky to have this level of assistance.

I also used evidence from my employer, physiotherapy exercise sheets, prescription lists, delivery letters for aids and ATW reports.

I would really advise anyone working to seek assistance from Access to Work.

I will certainly promote this website and the amazing work you do. Thank you so so much.

Hi somegirl

Many, many congratulations on your enhanced award. That is good news. We're glad you found the guides so helpful.

Thank you for taking the time to write about your experience. How wise of you to get your clinicians to tailor their letters in the right way. Of course - not all clinicians would take the time to do it - but I'm glad yours did. The fact is lots of people are too afraid to even ask - but you took the plunge, and it paid dividends. In my experience, clinicians are relieved when they are given clear guidance on what to write. You obviously did a large amount of work yourself, and I'm so glad it paid off.
