Hello, thank you for all your input on my recent posts - I have now finally received my award letter which should have been posted out in November.  I have received Standard daily living and enhanced mobility for an Ongoing Period, there doesn't seem to be an end date for a review.  Can anyone tell me what an Ongoing period is please ?

Thank you

    Ongoing means 10 years with a light touch review. 
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    Oh thank you Poppy, I'll be over 65 then so maybe  that's why. 
     That's a huge relief

    It’s likely more to do with your health conditions than your age at the moment. State pension age is also 66 now, not 65.
