Chalkie, It may be better to post your question in the "Blue Shirts" forum. More active to response imo.

Edit; googled this;
When your sick pay ends
If you have a long-term illness and your sick pay is coming to an end, you might be able to get Employment and Support Allowance (ESA). Check if you're eligible for ESA. You can start your claim for ESA 3 months before your sick pay ends, as the application process can take a while.

Also this link & scroll for ESA Check if you’re eligible for ESA.
