    You're going to need to give a bit more information I think before anyone can help.

    Do you definitely mean 2 years ago?  If so, it's way too late to do anything about it now and your only course of action is to start a new PIP claim.

         Can you explain more fully, with a timeline we are able to follow and that makes sense.

         What date was on your PIP decision letter? 
    Alice Holt Forest situated some 4 miles south of Farnham forms the most northerly gateway to the South Downs National Park.

    The criteria for pip are different to those for dla.  
    Did you fill in a pip form as well as have an interview?

    in my experience asking for mandatory reconsideration and then going to appeal with support is successful for many people denied pip.
