I am cofused about aids :-/ I don't go out 4 much of the week need a walking aid to try and help myself around otherwiise in my home .
I do get assistance from my partner but he cannot allways help as has own problems.
Which would be best to accrue points needed for 'aids'-- use the furniture to get araound or buy some aids -some of which i have but not all as expensive.despite the need.- which i would then imagine the dwp would say you are able to do anything- even walk9ng! Or would 'prescribed'aids be in preference to their tick boxes?
Any help appreciatead :-) thankyoua

The PIP Moving Around activity looks at your ability to walk outside, so using your furniture for support indoors may indicate that you have problems with the activity but wont help you to score points.

An aid or appliance that is prescribed will count for more than one that is purchased.
