I had a table from the Citizens Advice https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/Documents/Advice (public)/PIP – table of activities, descriptors and points.pdf?bcs-agent-scanner=882e6bef-63fa-6f42-9896-e22db499aee5
but today found this one https://www.advicenow.org.uk/know-hows/personal-independence-payment-pip-activities-descriptors-and-points#:~:text=You also need 8 points,you can't do it
They are not the same! For the advicenow one I'd get 12 points for mobility on the journeys question. On CAB, I'd get 10. DWP says none!

They are the same. In basic terms:
Cannot go out at all - 10 points
Can go out regularly but ONLY with another person - 12 points0
