    You have to appeal the decision to lower your mobility award don't delay inform DWP you intend to appeal. Have you got read your acessment reported to see why your mobility award was lowered. It maybe  you did not fit the descriptors for full mobility. Please contact scope for help and advice from the experts ASAP.
