Thank you to everyone who made our Summer Fair at The Lodge a success! We raised around £1,700 to support our work with disabled people. Huge thanks to all who came, donated, or helped on the day — we couldn’t do it without you.

MPs are set to vote on the government's welfare reforms tonight. The concessions don’t address the core issues & risk forcing future generations of disabled people into poverty & poor health. Today’s vote is crucial - we must be heard. Easy read: tinyurl.com/b8wuk66k

We're disappointed the welfare reforms passed — but your voices made a difference. Last week we submitted a co-produced response with disabled people, carers & staff Thanks to national pressure, key concessions were won — but we’ll keep fighting for fairness.
