Home Visit request was created by Valerie

I sent a letter from my GP requesting a home visit for my ESA medical as it is impossible for me to attend the centre. In fact if I did turn up it would instantly disprove everything I put down about my condition on the form!
DWP wrote to say I shpuld have attended as the gp letter was not sufficient and will stop mt esa if I don't send further supporting information. What should I send ?I no longer have a CPN as he retired and I am waiting for further counselling support .

To have your claim closed you need to have missed two appointments, what happened with the first one?

As to evidence, go back to your GP as explain your problems, they may be willing to provide a more detailed letter explaining your problems.

You can try involving your MP, they can sometimes make a difference.

Contacting your MP
