    I’m not as knowledgeable as others here, but I believe Citizens Advice, or your county council welfare rights (if they have one) should be able to help you with preparing and sending documents for a tribunal

    Hello there @kate56 and thanks for posting your query this evening, I'm sorry to hear that your MR has been refused.

    Turn2Us have a clear overview of your next steps at this stage, so please do have a read. Another thing I can recommend is searching on Advice Local for a professional adviser near to you.

    As CharlieRose mentioned, your local Citizens Advice, or Welfare Rights can also help.

    This news isn't easy to process to go through, so make sure you take some time to sit with what's happened, and look after your mental health in whatever way works best for you. 

    The community is here to support you, so please reach out if you have any questions, or feel we could support you any further.

    Alex

    First you'll need to request the Tribunal. See link. https://www.gov.uk/appeal-benefit-decision/submit-appeal All you need to do for now is give a brief reason why you disagree with the PIP decision.
    Then start here and put your postcode in and "choose a topic" welfare benefits. https://advicelocal.uk/
