I'm sorry you didn't get anywhere with your MR, but all that you wrote with that will be seen by a tribunal, so it was definitely worth doing.I'm not sure that Citizens Advice still represent claimants at a tribunal, but you'll find out when you see them. I know a tribunal sounds rather daunting, but if you start your appeal online, you can choose to have one by phone if you wish. It will just be 3 people, a judge, a Dr, & someone with an understanding about disability. If you have one at home by phone/video call you can still have someone with you for support, tho whichever type of tribunal you choose, you are the one that will be expected to answer questions about your daily activities & mobility (even if you have a representative).0

It’s very unlikely citizens Advice will represent you at Tribunal. For this you should look at either Welfare Rights or a Law Centre. https://advicelocal.uk/ even with this you will still need to speak for yourself during the hearing.An X-ray result doesn’t really give them any information about how your health conditions affect you.You’ve received some very good advice throughout the thread so please take sometime to have another read through everything and also have a read of the links posted.0

You don't need to ring PIP to tell them you're appealing the decision. You just request the appeal, which you can do online here. https://www.gov.uk/appeal-benefit-decision/submit-appeal you just need to give a brief reason why you're appealing for now. Anything else can be done at a later date.You have 1 month from the date of the MR decision to request this. If you're outside of the 1 month then you must give a reason why you're late. It's highly unlikely HMCTS will refuse a late appeal because the maximum time you have is 13 months.Did you use the link i provided in my previous comment to see what other advice agencies are local to you? If not then please use that.
