My wife and I are thinking of applying for P.I.P/D.L.A for our oldest daughter who has medical and mobility issues. We are looking to get some support for and during the application process, and would like to know where we can get some support/assistance in this matter. Any information or assistance in this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Hi @Gary,
You can also ask the Benefits Advisers on this Community for advice (as well as the many community members who will be able to help from personal experience of the process).
Your local Citizens Advice Bureau, will also have lots of advice and support available.
Good luck with your application.

Hi @Gary,
We have lots of information about both Disability Living Allowance and Personal Independence Payment on our website, which might be of interest to you.
As @CockneyRebel and @ourvoices mention, Benefits and Work and Citizens Advice are other useful sites to visit. Citizens Advice have a handy page with tips on how to answer each question of the PIP claim form, which may be helpful.
If you're looking for more specific advice on DLA/PIP, then do feel free to post a question in our Ask a Benefits Advisor category.Liam
