Hi @loulabell, I'm sorry to hear this. Was this through your local council? Is there somewhere on your letter listed where you can appeal the decision and ask them to reconsider?

Hi @loulabell,
you may be able to get some more information if you contact the Action on Hearing website. The link is as follows:
https://www.actiononhearingloss.org.uk/how-we-help/information-and-resources/information-line/
They have a text phone number or you can email them for information on services and rights. They also have some online forums you may find helpful.
Hope it helps.
