Universal Credit

Hi,

I’ve been on UC since 2020 and from my work capability assessment, I was deemed as having limited capability for work due to my anxiety & panic disorder. I had no issues then, but in 2022, I had a reassessment, and despite still being deemed as having limited capability for work, I feel as though too much is being expected of me.

I volunteer for about 5 hours, once a week in an admin role, but my work coach insists I have to do something else alongside my volunteering. Because of that, my work coach refers me to programmes aimed at helping me prepare for work, but they make me extremely anxious and worsen my mental health. I’m not sure what to do
