    Hi @Topcat71, it's a really worrying time for lots of people, I'm really sorry you're feeling affected by it all.

    None of the benefits changes that are being discussed in the news will be coming in immediately. So you'll still get your LCWRA top up even if you lose your PIP at your latest review. You will also be able to challenge the decision if you don't agree with it, so it's not all over if something does happen. There's some advice about that on the Scope website in case you need it:

    I hope you get your decision through soon and that it's a positive one ☺️

    Thank you Rosie I so so appreciate your kind words and support. I never used to be like this and worry so much. I live on my own and although I work 12 hours I feel I have no one who understands like yourself and others here. Thank you so much .

    You're very welcome @Topcat71, that's what we're here for. It's not easy with all that's going on and there's lots of information flying about which can be so confusing. You're definitely not alone in feeling worried about things 💛
