If you can manage this yourself then it would be 2 points because it’s classed as an aid. This may help, though it is long. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/personal-independence-payment-assessment-guide-for-assessment-providers/pip-assessment-guide-part-2-the-assessment-criteria#daily-living-activities1
