Hi Karen,
You may like to have a look at our website where there's lots of information about benefits: https://www.autism.org.uk/about/benefits-care/benefits.aspx
There are tips here about filling in the ESA50 form: https://www.autism.org.uk/about/benefits-care/benefits/esa/form.aspx
You may also like to contact our Autism Helpline team who can give general autism information and advice, but please be aware that they are unable to offer specialist advice on benefits. To contact the Helpline directly you can call them on 0808 800 4104 (Monday to Thursday 10am to 4pm, Friday, 9am to 3pm). Please press Option 2 to speak to an adviser. Please note the Helpline is often very busy and it may take a few attempts to get through to an adviser. Alternatively, should you prefer to send a message, you can do so via the Helpline's webform: https://www.autism.org.uk/services/helplines/main/questions.aspx
I hope that helps.
Regards,
Kerri-Mod
