Hi my sister is my appointee but she stays in a different postcode from me and this is causing me severe anxiety as I'm not always able to contact her when I'm needing her to help me

    Hi @Devilsangelh05, welcome to the community. Sorry to hear your situation is causing you anxiety, I hope you're doing okay today.

    Would you still like your sister to be your appointee? Is there anyone else you'd prefer to do it, or do you think you might be able to manage your claim yourself now?

    You can remove or change an appointee if you no longer want them to help:

    Have you been able to speak to your sister about how worried it makes you feel when you can't get in contact with her?

    Hope you can find a solution soon 💙
