    Hi @angiesaddington67. Welcome to Scope's forum. It is great to see you have joined us. How are you at the moment? It sounds positive that they have awarded you LCWRA. Does it say on your awarding letter when you should expect to receive it and how much?

    Unfortunately, we cannot read into the minds of the people who awarded you LCWRA, so they are best placed to answer your questions. You have done such a great job in reaching out to us though. I appreciate how much courage it can take to reach out, especially when you are new to the community.

    It can be a lot to understand, it is a reflection of the system rather than you as a person. Please don't hesitate to let us know if you have any further questions or if there's anything else we can do to help  :)
