What kind of tribunal was it for your ESA? I think you can appeal a first tier tribunal but I'm not sure about an upper tribunal (never been through the process myself but someone will have more experience to offer on it). This link I found via google might help, pdf of appeals and what to do.

Remember DLA and ESA are different in how they are worked out, DLA is based on care and mobility needs you have because of a condition, ESA is a points based system. Do you think you should be in the support group? Have a look at the descriptors, http://pseudo-living.blogspot.co.uk/2012/03/esa-descriptors-and-points.html.

Well done on winning your appeal for WRAG, and good luck if you decide to push for support group .

I think I've read that you can only appeal a tribunal to the upper tribunal on a point of law, not a disagreement on the actual decision. But a more expert member might be able to clarify.

Support Group isn't about points, it's about meeting descriptors. Hope that helps

As the other member said - appealing a tribunal decision may be extremely problematic, and will generally not be doable without advice.
Has your condition worsened since the ESA decision that you were not entitled to ESA? (The decision that you appealed)

Hmm, as others have said, ESA can only be appealed if the panel in the lower court erred in Law.

DLA is based on your needs, if you have a series of conditions thst have got worse, then you may appeal. May suggest you get more help in filling out your appeal or change of condition form so it is easier for the decision maker to read and get you the right level of help?
