You do not need to write a letter in order to lodge an appeal, you can complete a GL24 Appeal form, see the following

Is there any risk to challenging a decision?

How long do I have to appeal?

How to submit an appeal

Qualifying for the Support Group

12 Month Limit for ESA(CB)

Do I have to attend WFIs while I appeal?

How to complete the GL24 is explained in our ESA Appeals Guide. See

www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/help-for-claimants/esa

As an aside, the ESA descriptor covers mobilising, which in addition to walking covers the usage of a wheelchair over an equivalent distance, irrelevant of whether the claimant owns or even uses one.
