Kent Association for the Blind

We've joined over 80 other charities to urge the UK Government to consider the effect of the cost of living crisis on disabled people. We've written a joint letter to the Chancellor so please share your own experiences with your MPs here: secure.rnid.org.uk/page/138947/ac… #SupportCantWait
