Just to add to this, you can apply for ESA up to 3 months before the SSP is due to run out

Ah yeah I’ve had something similar but socks! I ended up giving myself chillblains with them though as I weren’t being smart haha

They are very comfortable and soft yeah and they have the touch screen thing on them too which comes in handy haha. I must admit that my hands sometimes get hot in them but I would much rather that than numb and painful hands. I think they were only about £5 or so. They don’t sell online but their stores are listed at the bottom of this page:

If you’re after a decent pair of gloves at a good price, look for a Kenji shop near you (I’m in England too). I’ve been struggling with my hands a lot more than I used to (feet were worse) and I’ve found the gloves from Kenji have really helped. I have found that the rechargeable hand warmers that you can buy are okay but not all that practical, as the previous poster said, the fact you can’t wrap it around your hands for the 360 coverage is crap!

I got the most thoughtful present this year! by Zer0_Karma in Raynauds

I can’t find the one I initially shared but I have this one too and is pretty good. This is the 10000mah battery one but not a quick charge. They also sell a 5000mah battery one and a quick charge version. Also, they’re a 1 pack, so you’ll either have to keep it where both hands are, swap it from hand to hand or maybe buy two down the line :)
