You can take someone with you, or ask for a home visit.
Do not follow me, I don't know where I am going. -
I think it's possible to have a paper-based assessment rather than a f2f in some circumstances. Try and ask CAB about this or if they can't help phone DWP and explain the circumstances.

Not everyone that qualified for a DLA award will meet the criteria for a PIP award
Try the B&W self test to see if your husband might meet the criteria
