He is an alcoholic that is not mentioned ..moreover the assessment speaks of things he was not actually asked to do. Added to which his esa has been withdrawn and he know has no money at all ! Is this normal and what should he do please! The irony is he is gets his pension next year...
Tell them to get face to face advice. Do an internet search for "welfare advice" with their postcode. town or county.
