Hi JonnyC
Yes, you can do what you suggest and leave the box unticked and put in an explanation.

Just remember, the ESA Mobility test includes the use of a wheelchair!
You do not need to use a wheelchair or to even own one for it to be considered so you must also explain why you cannot self-propel such a chair for more than 20m and certainly no more than 50m, assuming that this is the case.

I have been given an attendant -propelled chair for safe mobilisation following an OT assessment. I cannot self propel due to my upper limb disability. Will the OT report be useful supporting evidence for this activity ?
Thank you.
Thank you.

Hi JonnyC
Yes the report should be useful especially if it explains why you cannot propel a wheel chair i.e no strength in your hand/arm, or no grip in your hands.
