    HI,

    Some advice centres will represent for a Tribunal but even with representation they won't be able to speak for your daughter. If you are her appointee then you'll be able to speak on her behalf. If you're not then she will have to speak for herself. The panel will want to hear from her, how her conditions affect her.

    This link will help to know if there's anything in your area https://advicelocal.uk/

    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
