I have in the past been awarded 2 points in respect of prompting to engage with other people. I have, for well over two years required the support, rather then prompting from my parents to engage with others - i had to sell my home and live with my parents and rely and trust them for support.- i suspect 4 points should be awarded. Reading DWP stuff it talks singular - support from a trusted person. If,as i do i get support from my parents, 2 people, will this somehow dilute the importance of singular support such that my 4 point target will fail. Best wishes
Having support from more than one person is not a problem. Assuming that it is the case, you should make it clear that it is only people who are either trained in supporting people such as yourself or people who are experienced in supporting you, such as your parents who can supply this support.
