Good afternoon all,

I have a set of ESA appeal documents for the work capability assessment and the submission states that my client “has not supplied medical evidence of his Limited Capability for Work (LCW) from UFN”.

Is anyone able to advise me what “UFN” might stand for please ?

Many thanks
Tracey

I thought they were a florist. I suspect the question is tempting some jollity though.

Let’s start with “U” for “Unqualified” 😊

“N” for “nurse”?

I thought it was a variation of the doctors’ abbreviation “Normal for Norfolk”.  Unusual for Norfolk perhaps? But why would it be the claimant’s responsibility to provide anything via the UFN, whatever the UFN may be?

Thanks Billy for your help and thanks to everyone else for making me smile, from an Under Funded Numpty :)
