Hi everyone.
A friend of mine is having a face to face hearing for LCW and its just been adjourned for GP records
The judge has recommended he get specialist advice and representation before the next hearing.
I cant help due to the distance involved
Can anyone tell me if there are any organisations in Glasgow who offer representation at social security tribunals?
Thanks in advance

There are a lot of advice agencies in Glasgow who can provide representation.

Might be easier to check https://advicelocal.uk/ rather than try to list them

Additionally, if he is a tenant, many housing associations also have a welfare rights service
