Hi
thank you for your feedback this is the problem I don’t know any organisation I can turn to -
Hi @ianloynes1
The latest report said that 69% of appeals are won so it is definitely worth going through the appeal process. We have some videos that may help you with the process. Just as a side note, you can drive an automatic car on a manual licence (but you can't drive a manual car with an automatic licence)

It’s not a pip appeal

Hi ianloynes1
As mikehughescq says, best idea is to find local advice from a benefits caseworker.
Try
https://advicelocal.uk/
It is true though that some parts of the country are very short indeed of benefits caseworkers.
If there isn't one near you, then one of the Scope Helpline benefits specialists would get in touch to offer some help over the phone, one of us would go though how you can appeal your ESA decision ( the basic principles are similar to what you have read online about PIP appeals).
Please let us know if we need to get in touch with you by phone.
Best wishes
