    Hi yaris,
    I think the best place to go to would be your local CAB. They are very helpful.
    Good luck,

    Type 'Benefits' into a search engine and see what comes up - I'm no whizz at finding stuff but that should be a good start. You can also ring your local Social Services, they might be able to help, that's what I did when I initially applied. DD

    CAB have a website which anyone can access - www.adviceguide.org.uk. If you look under employment, it will tell you about statutory sick pay and employment and support allowance Hope this helps
