Our new report, Fight For Our Future: ACT Now for Disabled Children, is live. It paints a painfully bleak picture, where families have to fight day in, day out for their child’s basic needs 🧵
In the @theipaper today, VODG CEO shares our concerns on the Prime Minister’s welfare reforms, which are ‘less about investment in what we know works, and more about cutting costs by again targeting disabled people and those in need’ ⬇️ inews.co.uk/news/pip-survi…
As genuine demand for employment-related support and health-related benefits increases, the government proposes cuts to disability benefits and closes the Work and Health Programme. theguardian.com/society/2024/a…
This report from @skillsforcare and @TheKingsFund looks at the workforce we’re likely to need in the next 15 years. We commissioned as first step in the development of a workforce strategy, which we’re supporting and will be published in the summer. skillsforcare.org.uk/resources/docu…
As a member of the Disability Poverty Campaign Group we completely agree with the below statement. The problem is not disabled people or people with mental health conditions or people with other long term health conditions. The system is broken.
As a member of the Disability Poverty Campaign Group we completely agree with the below statement. The problem is not disabled people or people with mental health conditions or people with other long term health conditions. The system is broken.
The language used by @RishiSunak on work and welfare is deeply concerning. There are many positive ways of supporting people to enter and stay healthy in work, but these proposals are more focused on cutting costs by again targeting disabled people. vodg.org.uk/resource/refor…
Alongside others across the children’s sector, we are calling on MPs to vote in favour of the Tobacco and Vapes Bill tomorrow. We support a smoke-free future & the protection of children & young people from the harms of underage vaping. Full statement: bit.ly/3Uhj2Ej

“In some areas authorities are offering very low fee uplifts, and some none at all, which is directly restricting investment in services, the workforce and poses a significant risk to ongoing financial viability” - @VODGmembership CEO @rhidianhughes civilsociety.co.uk/news/major-cha…
