You will lose about £7/week for being moved to the WRAG from the SG and you will no longer be entitled to the Enhanced Disability Premium which shows as Disability Income Guarantee on the ESA letters, about £16/week.

So I still get 64 severe disability premium?
Will I not lose the 37.75 I get for being in support group , which I’ve been in since 2016? Sorry for being a pain

You will lose the £38.55 for the SG but you will receive £29.05 for being in the WRAG. So a reduction of £9.50 per week, slightly more than the £7 I suggested.

The SD Premium is dependant on your PIP Daily Living award not your being in the SG.
