Expected income you will lose if the Green Paper cuts are imposed: £400 per month plus my daughter could lose carers allowance and carers premium from her UC as she is my live in carer. |
Expected problems if you tried moving into work, with support from a work coach: I was finished from my job in 2020 due to my health, I am now a lot worse than I was then. I would struggle to commit to any type of work due to irregular sleep patterns due to insomnia and also medication. I also find it difficult to learn new things due to a lack of concentration caused by my illnesses and medication. |
Anything else to tell us: I have worked all my life until the age of 57 when I had to give up not just my job but my lifestyle due to ill health. I no longer socialise or have days out, I am mostly housebound due to pain and fatigue. |
