The PIP system must be friendly and accessible to the people with disabilities who rely on it. Too many applicants face rejection, forcing them to go through a tiring appeals process - where nearly 70% of appeals are eventually upheld. DPAC Dermot Devlin he/him

Disabled people face multiple #Barriers & #Inequality every day. Our lives are endangered by lack of equitable access to vital services e.g. social care, healthcare, pain management & cancer screening programmes. Invest & improve access to these. #AssistedDying is not the answer!

Absolute brilliant from Dermot Devlin he/him highlighting an important issue we have been raising for over a decade. Thanks to VIEWdigital and Social Change Initiative. Good to hear from Liz Kimmins about plans to deal with the issues around access to taxis.

BREAKING: Rachel Reeves' own local Labour party unanimously votes to oppose her disability benefit cuts. 30-0 vote shows growing rebellion within Labour ranks as they plan to write directly to her. The pressure mounts from inside and outside tinyurl.com/mtecpcaa

Lovely to nip into town and to meet Michael and Angela from Imtac for the first time, to find out more about the organisation and what my new role on the committee will entail. Looking forward to the first meeting next month and for having a voice for disability access 😃 ♿️

On the Translink Goldliner 273 from Belfast to Omagh. It has low floor access and I'm grinning. Will be a much more pleasant journey home, compared to the platform Goldliner. Imtac will understand how happy I am today. Department for Infrastructure 💜✊️

This is a shocking story. We already face so many additional physical barriers to getting around. We don’t need discriminatory bureaucracy added to that list. Police impound disabled man's wheelchair for 3 week salamandernews.org/police-impound…

Transport for All Disability News Service I have secured an Oral Question tomorrow (Thurs) morning on why the brand new automated taxis (driverless!) pilots will not have accessibility built in to manufacturing. Ignoring the Equality Act. Thanks your support!
