Mobility Confusion and Old Supporting Material

The DWP have delivered the PIP2 forms for my dad. They advised they may take up to three weeks to be delivered during my dad’s telephone interview, but they managed to deliver them within one week. Which thankfully gives us two weeks less to collect supporting evidence

Anyways... within the Mobility Activities section, 1. Planning and following journeys, points C and D talk about following a route (familiar or not), and whether without another person, assistant dog, or orientation aid you can follow the route.

I would assume by the way this question is written that it relates to a car journey or walking? To apply to different ways of traveling generally?

I may sound dumb, I just don’t want to get this wrong when helping my dad with his answer.

Also, regarding supporting material for PIP. Do you think it would be okay to supply old supporting material (in some instances), say from my dad’s now previous ESA claim? To be more specific, only to advise that a condition is degenerative and will never improve? My dad suffers with Ankylosing Spondylitis, a degenerative disease that only has the potential to get worse. I have material from my dad’s doctor, a DWP decision maker, and courts, all acknowledging that degenerative nature of the disease. The reason I ask this is because we already have this material. And chasing new doctors who have little knowledge of my dad’s condition is time consuming and sometimes futile.

What are your thought on this?

Kind regards,

It looks (hopefully) like we'll be getting support material from my dad's hospital consultant and also the charity NASS. As well as medical scans, and a letter from myself who sees how my dad's condition affects him on a daily basis, and a letter from my my much who has to care for him on occasion.

We may see if we can get a letter from his GP also, but his long standing doctor has now retired and remaining doctors know little to nothing about his condition - we shall see.
