Hello @noracnorac hello and welcome to the community. I'm personally really encouraged by your sister's determination. If you scroll down to the category section you will find the benefit adviser. They really know what they're talking about and they would really love to help your sister.

Hi @noracnorac,

Have you asked for a mandatory reconsideration?

noracnorac

Alex hi yes .....I asked for a mandatory reconsideration they took some more details and I'm waiting for the outcome.....Alex things are very difficult at the moment I myself are bed bound after sustaining a tibia plateau fracture and have my sister living here as I have nurses coming and going ....and my sister cannot be left on her own....up to now we have had a flooded kitchen and a near fire because she left food in oven she couldn't her the tap or the oven....feeling a little desperate can you help.....

Alex

I'm sorry to hear that, things sound really tough.

I think the best thing to do would be to give us a ring: 0808 800 3333 - it's free and open 9-5 on weekdays, and we'll be able to help work out what support you might be able to get.
