Refused PIP

My Son has been turned down for PIP. 
He has done  mandatory reconsideration, this was also turned down.
He appealed against the decision and asked for it to go to tribunal hearing. Today he received the information from them and they have again turned him down.
I (his Mum) have read through the paperwork and have found several difference's between his application form and the Assessment findings.

Is there anything else we can do.

Thank you
Sarah

    I dont understand why the Tribunal has turned you down before you have attended a hearing. I am just wondering if you sent in Medical reports and Doctors letters to support you.

    Hi,

    Did you ask for a paper based hearing, rather than appearing in person?  have you or your son received a decision from HMCTS?
    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.
