We know that requests for applications are expecting prompt replies. We try hard to reply quickly but PIN is a small charity, totally voluntary and can only process a limited amount of applications. The trustees meet once a month to process the first 10 applications the rest go into the following month.

Please read the following before requesting a form.

If you are seeking a private medical diagnosis it is unlikely we can help. An EP report can sometimes suggest a condition but cannot officially diagnose.

If you have been turned down for an EHCP assessment by your Local Authority, put in an appeal to SENDIST (The Special Educational Needs and Disability Tribunal) with all the evidence that you have already submitted. The chances are that the refusal was a time-wasting strategy and you do not need more evidence at this stage.

If the LA refuses to assess or issue an EHCP after assessment you can appeal and at this point you may need some additional funding so email us and we will send you an application form.
The same applies if you are appealing the content of an EHCP and need evidence for an appeal.

If eligible for legal aid, please try this route first in case you can get your two reports for free.
The number to call is 0345 3454345.
