    Yes as your appointee your wife can take the call for you.

    Does the message mention New Style ESA?

    If yes, read through this thread (by clicking on the purple text View Post) for an explanation.

    If no, this will be to have a discussion with your Work Coach about your work commitments.

    As you are in LCW you are expected to engage in work preparation activities, although you cannot be forced to apply for jobs.
