    LCWRA is part of Universal Credit. You will be entitled to extra money from the 4th month after you provided your first fit note.

    Unfortunately, this doesn't entitle you to free travel. You can look at the eligibility criteria on your local Authorities website to see if you may qualify.

    Morning @AKWAsi20 and welcome to the community.

    I see Poppy has already given you some help there. Just wanted to add that you may be entitled to other benefits. The government has some info here https://www.gov.uk/check-benefits-financial-support

    Hope that helps 😊

    Hi, with my local council I applied for a disabled freedom pass which I think covers most forms of public transport.
