Hi. Hope everyone is doing well.
I have a a PIP Tribunal on the 23rd of this month via video link from the Citizens Advice where I live. I wonder if anyone has any experience of these & will my representative speak on my behalf?
I won a tribunal in 2019 & it was a face to assessment, my rep who was brilliant during the whole process successfully argued my case and all I had to do was go in after her and acknowledge that I was happy with the award. Now I fear I'm not going to be able to articulate adequately my problems on the 23rd due to my anxiety.
Any advice is welcome.
Take care,
TeddyB22

Thanks Mike
I have a telephone call with her about a week before the tribunal. I have to travel to her as she won't be in my town on the day of the Appeal. -

HiJust wondered whether you'd had your hearing yet and, if so, how it went.
I've just had a letter to say mine is on 8/3/23, also via video and I'm dreading it. That was how my initial assessment was conducted and I struggled to get across how things really were for me.
I hope, if you've had yours, you were successful.
