A very good morning to all
Well like most I'm in isolation and looking at the future in so many ways 
And missing the contact with close ones
Can anybody support on the following please
At present I'm on disability element of ESA and in support group and not on universe credit 
However looking at moving to new area after lockdown etc 
And new local supported housing trust 
Will I loose my disability element of benefit
As classed as change in circumstances
Or do I carry benefits across with no loss of money 
I'm scared this may happen but need to move 
Thanks

    Hello @gaypride   Pleased to meet you.

    Thank you for joining and sharing.

    I would advise speak to a member of our team, @poppy123456 who has exceptional knowledge and expertise on benefits.

    Wil be able to answer your questions.

    I suggest look at our website.

    You could contact CAB another website lots of information on benefits.

    One other if your Housing Association has a benefit advisor you could ask them as well.

    My Housing Association has website and advisors on line, look,
    to see if your has.

    Please if you have any questions I am sure @poppy123456 be able to answer.

    Please take care and safe.
