Gypsyjanet, firstly what you do sounds amazing making the caravans, I've seen one (not that you've made I guess) and it was gorgeous.
Anyway, back to the thread, I'm not going to get involved in the ESA vs JSA vs can you/can't you work etc, but just wanted to say you can still claim HB even if you're not on JSA/ESA or other related benefit. You just need to submit a HB claim form (should be available online or via your HB office) and you can claim on grounds of low/no income.

You wont lose HB because you have lost ESA, you can claim it with zero income (so long as you fulfil the normal criteria)and get the maximum avaialble so dont worry that you will lose your home, that will give you more energy to fight the ESA/JSA issue.
You havnt answered the wether you have seen a pain specialist janet? Have you? It can make a huge diffrence to your life when you have a good pain regime.0
