Hi I have a brain tomour I used to get DLA I got moved over to pip. Cut a long story short I went to a tribunrul and scored enhanced daily living standard mobility

I rang pip the other day they says they will be writing to me at the end of next month. To see if anything else has changed.

My condition is getting worse, i can't go out by myself am I Likly to score 12 points for not being able to follow a familiar journey?? as I've got anxiety due to my tomour.i also got bad ptsd. As was involved in a RTC with a bus.

I really need to score 12 points for mobility as I need to try nd get a mobility car to try get me mobile again?

If I get letters of medical professionals?

I would go back to the guide to make sure that you understand the criteria, being unable to go out by yourself is unlikely to score the points you need for the Enhanced award unless you also have problems with Moving Around.

All I can say is that it is not impossible, it will be entirely down to your explaining the distances that you can reliably walk on the majority of days and the difficulties you would have following (navigating) a route.
