  • I'm sorry how can you have further evidence of falling over? You either fall over or you don't! You don't seriously log everytime you fall over, do you?

    No, I don't log every fall.

    On that occassion, I broke a bone in my foot and was able to send in evidence to support my claim. I had already included evidence in my claim of other falls.

    As you said above, if DLA was based on one fall, it would be wrong. Supplying the evidence I did, meant my claim was renewed within five weeks, without the need for a medical and part of that was evidence from some of the falls I had had, one after the renewal form was sent in.

    It really isn't that hard to understand.
