Questions in ESA Assessment

Hi, can anyone tell me what sort of questions they ask in an ESA Assessment please?
Replies
Think about your disability. What do you find hard? Make a list which you can refer to as you complete the form. Describe good and bad days as well it will help. Make sure to read all the questions carefully. https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/benefits/sick-or-disabled-people-and-carers/employment-and-support-allowance/help-with-your-esa-claim/fill-in-form/
CAB have produced a useful ESA guide worth reading. With the first question, consider mobility aids and equipment you may use. Question number one is about moving around. If you need a wheelchair, say so on the form. Again, talk about day to day life. The first group of questions are about physical disabilities only.
Remember the second set of questions are not just about mental health. They are also relevant to people with learning difficulties/disabilities.

If you have a few minutes to spare, we'd appreciate your feedback on our online community.
