@SeanArmy85 @cedgson91 That's the elephant in the room here, I think. Most of the work available to long term disabled and autistic people does not pay. It also means risking UC and PIP eligibility, while also worsening health and causing burnout.

#Dyspraxia is often invisible, but the shame isn't. It's in each stare, every impatient sigh. If you're a healthcare provider, please ensure you know enough about dyspraxia and what it co-occurs with including autism, ADHD and mental illness to be patient, validating + helpful.

Ah yes continuing what the tories started with more demonising disabled people like M Stride when he proposed PIP to be vouchers🤦🏼 These programs hurt people esp those with neurodiverse & complex needs They will not work for everyone Labour want “savings” (cuts) & every1 working

The #Workwell policy, and the various successful pilots, were the product of months of work by the @Conservatives govt & the @DWPgovuk I was working in as Employment Minister in 2022-23, as @MelJStride could tell you. Good to see praise but the policy is a Conservative one 1/.

@cedgson91 @UKLabour The issue here is that employers will take advantage of disabled/autistic people more needs to be done to protect the most vulnerable

@UKLabour Getting disabled people back to work through “programs” that will “help” but in reality will cut/save welfare because apparently we’re worthless & dragging the economy down if we’re not. Fixing foundations shouldn’t be at the expense of vulnerable lives - eg disabled/elderly

@cedgson91 @DWPgovuk Disabled people miss out in work in my honest opinion and experience work does not pay the government should realise this the issue doesn't lie with people who are disabled but with employers

@DWPgovuk If you want to address poverty in the disabled community how about you make sure UC & PIP are enough to live on for all! 40% of UC are working, cos wages are too low Energy bills are higher. Disabled ppl have extra costs of £1010 a month! No cuts to benefits either would help too

This country’s greatest asset is its people but millions are being denied the opportunity to work due to poor health Watch to find out how a WorkWell pilot that joins up healthcare and employment support is helping people to remain in work or get back into work 1/2
