Hello Clarke123, and welcome to the scope community, regarding your mobility as you only got 4points at your last acessment I doubt if you would get standard let alone enhanced but if you mobility has got worst it will be worth reapplying. Your housing, requesting a Change or move to a ground floor flat contact your local housing association if they are your landlord or local council. A vist from home acessment officer to decuss your needs and abilities could and should help to falcitae a move when a suitable flat is available in the area you wish to live. This all takes time so sooner the better.0

Hi @Clarkie123, and a warm welcome to the community!
I wonder if there is any input @Username_removed could offer here regarding your benefits situation?
If you're looking to move and struggling with online forms, it might also be worth talking to Citizens Advice and seeing if they can assist- you can find your local CAB on their website. In the meantime, please do keep us updated and we'll advise where we can!0 -
