Hello I would be glad of some help. I am disabled and have just migrated to UC which went very smoothly!:) I was given the go ahead to do permitted work when on ESA. I never managed to do this but now i I would like to do just a few hours online a month for not much money ( well under limit) as this would help me feel better in some ways. My question is
If I ask about this in my online Journal would this trigger an appointment and ( ongoing appointments )with a work Coach? This is not something I could deal with as i have PTSD and it just would not be worth it.
Does anyone her ehave the experience of being disabled and doing a bit of work with no UC pressure/coaching etc? thanks very much:)

Hello Simon,

There is a B & W guide about permitted work, the second link down on this page, which I recommend you read.

UC & ESA resources

Hopefully some of our members will also share their experiences with you.
