Hi, my name is bana!

I’m worried about what could to happen to the ESA support group, which I’m in. Having read the white paper with help we do not know if they will be written off, migrated to the new potentially merged system or ring-fenced? Surely for those who have been on it for years and are a risk to others should be ring-fenced as some have suggested or given sufficient time to get the tailored support they need to get into work. Any views would be much appreciated. The group is such a small group too.

Hi @bana and a warm welcome to the community!
We've created this discussion for everyone to talk about it here and ask their questions - The Green Paper Discussion
We'd prefer to keep the conversations regarding this all in one place, so as to protect the mental health of all on the community, so we will be closing this discussion. I hope you understand.
