PIP claim form help

Hi all so I'm at the end of my tether as I'm trying to find help filling in my PIP claim form - I have MS and my hands are numb and don't work well.
I spent 4 hours trying to find help starting with Citizens Advice and I'm spent now.
It's been suggested to use DWP is that possible I was hoping to use an independent organisation - does anyone have experience of using them?
Hope someone can help/advise here I'm spent Arrrggghhh.
Thanks for listening really appreciate it

Hi C,

I gather that you have read my response to your previous topic : Here.

I am not aware of many members using The DWP to help them fill in their PIP Forms ! (for obvious reasons)

However, if any have they are most welcome to provide feedback.

Yes, it is more difficult to obtain Welfare Advice and Support since Legal Aid for such services was withdrawn.

See : This Topic in The Spotlight Area above the forum regarding potential sources of advice.

Hi all
I was offered this in December 2015, when I had to do the whole PIP2 form for the second time (because their 'sensitive scanners' couldn't cope with the info my carer had sellotaped into the form), the PIP rep at the DLA centre Blackpool offered to send out a DWP officer 'to fill it in'. (Lukily, a friend filled it in for me).Though she did mention that the disabled people she'd offered this to didn't 'seem keen to have someone from the DWP filling in their forms'
