    Hi there 

    There are no set points for specific aids 

    They just score if you are unable to do the task without the use of a specialist aid usually 2 points I think

    Hi @roxyc :) It might be worth having a look through the PIP descriptors (pipinfo.net) if you haven't already. You can see a breakdown of points for each activity, which can help you to work out where you might be eligible for points. As Janer1967 has mentioned, the points aren't really based around specific conditions or aids, it's more about how your conditions affect you and your ability to do certain activities. Please do give them a read and let us know if you have any further questions.
