a useful decision- consultant evidence, mobility, dressing/undressing, food prep, socialising
http://www.bailii.org/uk/cases/UKUT/AAC/2017/154.pdf
inter alia, for what the judge says about the evidence of treating consultants (as opposed to the FTT’s own views); also the actual test for mobility (what is reasonably necessary is not the point! the point is what the claimant would do but for her disabilities and how her disabilities prevent that); and various other points that people will find useful in similar contexts.

Also useful for spelling out that MH continues to apply to pre-16/3/2017 cases. Though she also said that more succinctly in RS-G v SSWP (PIP) [2017] UKUT 0152 (AAC) which was published yesterday. There are still some FtT judges not clear on that point.

Splendidly! Motability car regained and DL will be worth more than £60k over the term of the award with SDP, etc. Thanks again.
