Appeal Representation in Northumberland (PIP)
Hi all. I’m wondering if someone knows if there are any third sector organisations that can provide appeal representation in the Alnwick area of Northumberland. I have a friend there who is claiming PIP, but should she need to challenge the decision, she will need assistance. She has tried the local CAB and they don’t rep appeals. Any ideas?
Disability North may be able to help. Their number is 0191 284 0480. http://www.disabilitynorth.org.uk/
I am sure that I will get in trouble for once again touting for work*, but I am at Shelter in Newcastle and we are happy to advise on PIP appeals and to do form filling etc. throughout the North East
