Hi @Andrea1974A
Good Evening & Welcome it’s great to meet you today ☃️
I am one off the Community Champion’s here at Scope.
Do you have a local “CAB” as that will be a good start.
We have a helpline: 0808 800 3333.
Which you will find very helpful.

Hello @Andrea1974A and welcome to the community.
It sounds as though you've been placed into "light touch" which has changed your claimant commitments. If you have a partner that lives with you and is working, earning over a set amount, you'll be placed into light touch so you're not expected to look for work.
You'll still need to provide fit notes etc if you're hoping to be assessed for LCW/LCWRA.Community Manager
