Hi Lisa,
No wonder you are panicking.

I agree with Chris, definitely contact the helpline:

Carers UK provides information, support and advice to carers. The information and advice we provide covers a range of subjects relating to caring including:

• Benefits and tax credits
• Carers employment rights
• Carers assessments and how to get supporters
• Services available to carers
• How to complain effectively and challenge decisions

You can email us at adviceline@carersuk.org and we will respond to your enquiries within 10 working days, although it can often be sooner.

Our telephone helpline providing information is open on Mondays and Tuesdays between 10am and 4pm - 0808 808 7777

You can also get hold of useful information and support online.
• Visit the Help and Advice sections of our website where we have lots of information and downloadable factsheets on the topics people ask us about most. www.carersuk.org/help-and-advice
• New to caring? Our Upfront guide will take you straight to the information you need to know. It takes only a few minutes to complete. www.carersuk.org/upfront/

You aren’t the only carer in this situation, others are also being contacted by the DWP.
