The organisation which processes payouts on our behalf is cutting down their payout schedule from 3 days a week just Tuesdays and Fridays which means you may have to wait a bit longer for the grant to be paid. Starting next week payouts are Tuesdays and Fridays.
Not worth saying anything more about the “spring statement” budget today, other than to say that no one is coming to save us. We have to look after each other. Strong supportive communities holding each other up with mutual aid. opencollective.com/downhamsolidar…
Helen Barnard, policy research director @TrussellUK : “The Treasury’s insistence on driving through record cuts to disabled people’s social security to balance the books is both shocking and appalling. People at food banks are telling us they are terrified how they’ll survive.”
Landlordism is out of control.
Our rotten economic system summed up in one sentence.
The most vulnerable should not shoulder the burden caused by cowardly not taxing the mega wealthy. These cuts to disabled people must not happen. Pleased to hear MP @CllrTerryJermy speaking against it today on Radio Norfolk. Hopefully he will vote with his conscience on this 🗳️
The government has announced the most devastating cuts to disability benefits on record. These plans should shame the government to its core. Here's our initial response to the new Welfare Green Paper 🧵👇
The fund currently sits at £49. Please share so anyone who may need support can request it. opencollective.com/downhamsolidar…
Downham Solidarity Fund is mutual aid, neighbours helping neighbours, like we saw during covid. Started in response to the cost of living crisis, we provide emergency grants to people who need financial support. Funded by donations within our community. opencollective.com/downhamsolidar…
Yesterday we wrote to MP Terry Jermy about the proposed cuts to welfare, in particular PIP. We’re pleased to see a response today from him. The government must not go ahead with these plans. See his Facebook for the full statement.
Exactly. Political choices. Stop choosing to cut the poor.
I spoke to the @BBCr4today this morning about why cuts to disabilty benefits are a political choice - and the wrong one.
The support we provide people comes from donations made in solidarity with the Downham community. Some people have been long term regular donors and have contributed a significant amount over time. Special thank you to those people! Read more: opencollective.com/downhamsolidar…
This is evil.
I spoke to the @BBCr4today this morning about why cuts to disabilty benefits are a political choice - and the wrong one.
Austerity doesn’t work. After 15 years of Tory cuts, there’s nothing left to cut. This will result in deaths. This must be opposed.

We unfortunately turned away 22% of those asking for help due to lack of funds. Never easy to do. We have seen an increase in people asking for help in the last 6 months. With shareholder greed pushing up energy and water bills this week we expect even more people will need help.
February Update 🗓️ This was a significant month for our support. At £218 donated, this was our second biggest month ever in terms of contributions. We were amazingly able to support 7️⃣ people in our town who needed help! Thank you for your acts of solidarity.
We have two pending applications and only have enough funds to cover one. We’re short about £30, are you able to chip-in at all? #MutualAid #MutualAidRequest opencollective.com/downhamsolidar…
Energy bills up, water bills up. All while shareholders stuff their pockets with the profits. They’re robbing us. No one is coming to save us. Politicians don’t have the answers. We have to look after each other with #MutualAid. opencollective.com/downhamsolidar…
After food, energy bills is the next biggest thing people are asking for help to cover the costs. Tories failed and Labour are failing to protect people from shareholder greed. The “cap” is a sham. The far right are in the pockets of fossil fuel corporations.
BREAKING: The average annual energy bill will increase to £1,849 from April - the third consecutive rise to the energy price cap by industry regulator Ofgem Read more ⬇️ news.sky.com/story/money-ne…
