    Welcome to the community @Marian34.

    I'm sorry to hear you're not happy with how your appeal went. Would you like to tell us why this is?

    Hi @Marian34

    If you lose your appeal
    You’ll be sent a guide with an official notice that explains your options. Sometimes it’s possible to appeal to a higher level of tribunal, called the Upper Tribunal, if you think your tribunal made a mistake in law, but you can’t appeal just because you disagree with the result.
    If you’re thinking about challenging the decision, get advice from your local Citizens Advice in England and Wales or in Scotland to check if you have grounds to appeal again.
    You can reapply for PIP and start the process again, but unless something has changed you’re unlikely to get a different decision.


    This comes from the CAB website.
