Thanks to the 61 people who made our Open Day so great today. It was brilliant seeing so many orgs, partners, potential shedders, funders and elected members, we love showing our work 👍 Thanks to St Mirren FC for donating 2 game tickets to our raffle (a #Shedder won 🤦🏻‍♀️)

As an ex-University of Strathclyde student, a mum to a daughter with #ASD & experiencing my own #ND journey, I can’t tell you how exceptionally proud I was to stand next to these remarkable care-givers today as they told their stories & made their recommendations. Powerful & awe inspiring

📣 NEW: Millions of people are turning to food banks because Universal Credit is falling short. And now the UK government is voting on brutal cuts to disability support. We’re in Parliament today to urge MPs to ACT on hunger and hardship.

Shocked & appalled at this! The most vulnerable people have just survived (or not) a pandemic, Cost of Living Crisis & rise in energy bills and now this! On a day when 700 activists were ‘heard’ by MPs. The community are NOT numbers to be balanced on a spreadsheet

Proud to be involved with this campaign! We will not see our most vulnerable community members experience any more cuts to their quality of life! Change happens when we step up and demand it. Join the march with us. Edinburgh - 25 Oct. #WeDemandBetter  scotland-demands-better.com ✊

It’s wrong for the UK Government to balance the books on the backs of sick and disabled people. We need Scottish MPs to stand up for justice and compassion now. #WeDemandBetter povertyalliance.org/news-more-than…

People want a government that believes in justice and compassion. That’s why we need Scottish MPs to stand up for social security. “It’s supposed to be a safety net, but this feels like a noose.” (UC Health claimants at STAR) #WeDemandBetter povertyalliance.org/news-more-than…
