There are a number of things that you can do.

Firstly, you can make sure you've got, or have asked for, a form GL24.

Secondly, you can look at our guide to appeals.

Thirdly, you can look again at our guide to claiming DLA and think about whether you explained your needs fully when you applied. If you haven't kept a copy of your application for DLA, you can get a copy from the DWP.

Fourthly, you can look to see if there's anywhere locally you can get face to face advice. See here for suggestions as to where you might get some help.
