Wonderful news. My 19 yo gets PIP - in his review recently, he dropped from Enhanced Mobility to Standard Mobility. We asked for Mandatory Reconsideration - but they wouldn't change the decision. He had to give back his Motability car. which was devastating for him. I know it was only 2 points, but we lodged an appeal anyway. Today, they rang to say that he can have enhanced mobility again without having to go to tribunal! Me: 5 - 0 :DWP Over the moon! xxx

PS. If you manage to get to tribunal stage - because they will always try to knock you back. success rates are currently 68% My message is - never give up - appeal, appeal, appeal. x

😀
