Hi, my name is leelee85! LCWRA, do I need to let them know about a change in health?

hi! I was awarded LWCRA around 20 months ago. I had bowel cancer, I am now in my second year of remission. I have been suffering from bowel incontinence as a result from my cancer treatment. It’s almost daily. Multiple times a week. And even when I’m not incontinent, I might have to run to the toilet upwards of 8 times a day, sometimes quite a few times in the space of an hour.
do I need to let them know this? As it’s still the effects of my treatment for cancer, the original reason I was awarded LWCRA

LCWRA is an ongoing award until a new decision says otherwise. No, you do not need to report the changes.

I thought they were stopping reassessing from now on?

Labour haven’t made any announcements and won’t until sometime in the Spring. Until then everything remains as it is.
