I’ve been given this leaflet that has been put together by Rhondda Cynon Taff CAB and Suffolk Law Centre which includes a pro forma to give to a work coach to request reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act. As I understand it, if you put in a formal request the jobcentre must respond addressing each of your points. Could be useful to take into a first interview when the claimant commitment is being drawn up, or at any point along the line to get it reviewed.

The leaflet is for JSA but obviously would work for UC/ESA as well
