Hi Please can someone help me clarify on the walking descriptor for the support group. I know it is can't walk 30 metres or propel yourself manually in a wheelchair.
I had my medical on 7th May and report states that although I have severe walking ability, I can use a wheelchair.
Does this mean you have to satisfy both to get in the support group?

The emphasis now seems to have shifted from walking to mobilising, but in any event, if you can propel your wheelchair more than 30 metres unaided, the chances are that you will not qualify for this descriptor.
