Gov must not U-turn on uprating benefits in line with inflation. 900k #Disabled households on Universal Credit will be at least £385 a year worse off if based on earnings (5.4%) vs Sep CPI (10.1%). @Jeremy_Hunt must keep his word to prioritise most in need. #CostOfLivingCrisis

We are deeply saddened by the death of our patron, Her Majesty The Queen. Her Majesty’s endless support of many charities, including our own, around the world has been a guiding light.

While a temporary freeze on energy bills is a welcome step in the right direction, disabled people are already being pushed into poverty with current bills going through the roof. Read our response to today’s government announcement on energy bills: bit.ly/3TUvJTj
