Hi,
I’m not an expert on this and if I were in your position, I might consider ringing the MS Society helpline.
Have you been assessed for benefits/eligibility?

Hi, no I haven’t been assessed I have never been in this situation so I have no idea what I’m doing.

As @Leonora says , try calling the MS Society helpline. They can probably give advice and info on different options

Thanks I will call them and see what they can advise me.

Hi, there may be things that your mortgage lender could do to help with your mortgage commitment. There were a couple of things brought in as part of the governments mortgage charter in March 24 that was aimed at supporting people with the cost of living.
