High all,
my neighbour was looking through my form i have my home face to face next week yes rhere was a mistake i missed out a word BUT it does show it doesnt go with what has been said elsewhere.
I can (missed out not) walk without stumbling and falling. 
Ps i use scooter outside

SHOULD I GET MY HELPER TO SAY STRAIGHT AWAY TO THE ASSOR WILL THEY MAKE NOTE OF ERROR or will this go against me. My writing not too good on form also.

    Hi,

    I think this needs to be noted somewhere on the DWP records, in case you end up having to explain it to a tribunal.

    There is nothing to stop you mentioning it to the assessor, and this shouldn't count against you, but I would not consider this a reliable method of making the point to the DWP, and would recommend also sending a letter in explaining the error and emphasising that this IS something you struggle with - once you've sent the letter I would also telephone 10-14 days later to make sure they have it.

    Hope this helps.

    Kind regards,

    Mary
