    What do you mean by the PIP awards scheme?

    There's no middle rate for PIP, it's either standard or Enhanced. The only scheme i know of when claiming Enhanced mobility is the mobility scheme for vehicles or wheelchairs/mobility scooters. For this you exchange your mobility award for either of those. https://www.motability.org.uk/

    I have no idea if it would be of any interest to you, it depends if you want either a vehicle, scooter or power wheel chair.
    I don't know what you mean by "i thought it all changed to PIP automatically" You can check the motability scheme through the link i posted above.
