hi thanks for your reply.sorry didnt make clear.the claim is for my husband and i am his carer.what i meant to say if he is too unwell to go for the appeal can i go instead to represent him as i am his carer?

Unless you have been appointed your husbands legal representative, and there are reasons why he cannot cannot attend a hearing, rather than being too ill on the day, then you will not be allowed to represent your husband in the way your are suggesting.

I am afraid that the Tribunal will want to hear your husbands explanation as to why he believes he meets the ESA Support Group criteria.

You can apply for a domicilary hearing, but these are quite rare, and you will need support from your GP that this is a requirement.
