I wonder if anybody can help me. I've recently been awarded LCWRA after applying in December 21.
I feel that I would like to go back to work for maybe 2 days per week but am worried that if I do I find I can't do it and I've lost my LCWRA.
Has anybody been through the same or I would welcome your thoughts.

People do work when found to have either LCW or LCWRA but if the work you do contradicts the reasons why you were found to have LCWRA then it can go against you when you're next reassessed.If you start working you must report a change of circumstances and tell them you're working.I also see that your username could be your full name. It's against the rules to give personal information here on scope because it's a public forum and anyone can see what members post.When choosing a username it's never a good idea to use your full name. I'll flag it to the moderators and they will sort that when they come online.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

I work and claim LCWRA. I don't know the reasons you're claiming LCWRA but just keep evidence of any adjustments made to enable you to do this.
LCWRA isn't about not being able to work at all Have you started looking at jobs? -
Welcome to the community @carolegarratt Thank you for joining!
I hope the above replies have reassured you that you can work and claim LCWRA at the same time. If there's anything you're still unsure about, please just let us know.
I sent you an email earlier today from community@scope.org.uk about your username, so please do keep an eye out for that.
