Photographs as evidence?

Photographs as evidence? was created by Christine J
Wondering whether sending photos of aids used eg grab rails, and placement in house is a good idea? Also the fact that I have a back issue and been advised not to bend but live in a house where there are no upper kitchen cupboards. Good idea or not?

It is not usually an issue whether the claimant has the aids that they say that they use so it is really up to you whether you include photos or not.

The Preparing Food activity only considers issues a waist height so you may struggle to argue issues with your cupboards.

Okay thanks Gordon. I just thought it might be relevant if I can't get to any plates/pans because they are in a lower cupboard, or get anything out of the freezer because it is below waist height. That would prevent me from preparing food at all without the help of another person surely?

You should certainly make your arguments but I would not rely on your scoring the points for this.
