    Hello suerone and welcome

    Applying for PIP can be very daunting and the criteria for PIP is different to DLA

    Have a look at the B&W self test

    If I may suggest you should get help from CAB, Age Uk or similar to fill in the form

    Thanks CR I will look at it just wondered if you can ask for someone from an Agency or Advice Bureau to go with you for the Assessment ?

    You can ask but most do not have the funding to do so
