Did they pop a message saying waiting to be verified? Have you chased it up. I know sometimes they take weeks to get back in the journal.

Hi guys, I got through after 1hr 20. I am in absolute bits. My boy has been awarded HRC and LRM from his 5th Birthday in Dec. I can not believe it! I am so overwhelmed, i genuinely thought he would be declined. Scan date 16/6 xx

Congratulations 🎉 xx

2boymum · 18/10/2023 17:54

@Gem013 I had been thinking the same, just makes it that bit better when their struggles and high needs are acknowledged. Enjoy spoiling your boy, they deserve it x

4LittleFirecrackers · 18/10/2023 17:52

@Lollypops88 hopefully the hols aren’t too bad, only a week at least and possibly have an answer 😬
