Impact of change of address

Hello all, thanks in advance for reading. I have been receiving ESA (support group with disability premium) for 3 years, and was successfully reassessed last week. (I also revive higher rate daily living allowance PIP). I will be moving home soon and I read online that once I move the 'change in circumstances' will mean I may need to be: 1. reassessed again, 2.move from ESA to UC, and, 3.possibly have a reduction in my benefit amount.
Could anybody here clarify these queries for me?
Many thanks

Thanks for the information
Yes, I will be moving to a different council borough, but I won't need to cousin housing benefit.
I do live alone and receive the severe disability premium.
With all that said, I wonder if anybody here has any additional input?
My situation will be that I will be moving address, into a different council borough in the new year. However, I won't be applying for housing benefit after I move. Currently I am receiving IR ESA support group with severe disability premium and disability income guarantee.
Thanks for providing input.
Admittedly, I am being hard to convince, because of what I was told on the UC helpline and the Moneyadvisoryservice helpline too. Kindest regards for your input.
When I do change address do I simply phone the ESA helpline and advise I'm changing address, while emphasising that I do not wish to claim HB once move?
Kindest regards and many thanks.
