I have a queary with regard to section 1 moving around, the box 200 mtrs used to say can you mobilise up to 200 mtrs which I can do on a good day and have received 6 points previously for this .
the new form states can I mobilise 200mtrs or more??? why this change if I tick yhis box will I loose the points I got previousy as 200mtrs is as far as I can mobilise at maximum and only on a good day can go up to 200 mtrs normally I can only get about 100 mtrs max.
any advise is appreciated

Please have a look at the guidance in the ESA Claims on Physical Grounds page 31 onwards.

I am a bit confused by your question, if you cannot mobilise 200m or more, why would you be considering ticking this box?

I guess the answer is tick the mobilise up to 100 mtrs box !!!
You should not feel required to tick any of the boxes or a box that does not represent your limitations, it is perfectly acceptable to add "none apply" to the form and explain in the comment box what your actually capability is.
