    Hi @MODonnell

    Applying for benefits can involve frustrating waits sometimes. If you have concerns about this, talk to our free helpline on 0808 800 3333.

    If you are looking for information, support or advice about dementia, try the National Dementia Helpline on 0300 222 11 22.

    Hope you hear back soon, Alex
