Has you Representative made a submission on your behalf covering the issues that would have been detailed in an ESA50?
The panel will be asking you about your limitation in regard to each of the ESA activities so you need to understand the criteria you are being assessed against and how your CFS prevents you from completing them.
A good place to start would be for you to review our ESA Claim guide which explain the criteria in simple terms.

If you have further questions then please reply to this post and we will do our best to help.
