You will have the work allowance, which means that £573 of your earnings received each assessment period are ignored. After this there's a 55% deduction in your UC. With earnings of £599 this means that there will be a £14 deduction in your UC.You must report a change of circumstances and tell them when you start working. If the work you do contradicts the reasons why you were found to have LCWRA then it could go against you the next time you're assessed.0

That sounds really tough for you @dennygirl. Sorry to hear you have experienced this.
Unfortunately, benefits are not my area of expertise. This means I can only hope someone with more knowledge in this area is able to support you through this.
In the meantime, I wanted to respond to let you know we hear you and are here for you0 -
