Hi all. Just want to say my son was awarded pip. Thanks for all your help & support. I have told quite a few people about scopes forum & how helpful it’s been.I am a bit disappointed about one thing on mobility side of it as they felt he can plan a journey which he can’t but we’ve decided we are not going to rock any boats & take what they’ve given him.
Thanks all that have been kind & helpful.Danni. -

@dannistar glad your sin got his award. His difficulties sound similar to my son’s.
if you are disappointed with the award you can request a copy of the medical report to help understand why they scored as they did -
My son recently had a very smooth transfer from DLA to PIP. 8 weeks and a paper based assessment. He was awarded more on PIP and a 9 year award. X
