Non-partisan UK-based Disability campaign. Advocacy for people with invisible illness and/or physical & mental health conditions. Also Carers, their Families and Friends. Our individual voices are too quiet to be heard, but collectively we can shout loud enough to drown out this tide of abuse against us. Disability Hate Crime, lack of full legal protection, people in care homes costing too much to be let out and not one political party willing to fight for us.

Boris Johnson quote from #spartacusreport
"The
government proposes imposing penalties if disabled people do not inform
the government in changes in their circumstances. However, the
Department of Work and Pensions statistics give the overall fraud rate
for Disability Living Allowance as being less than 0.5%. For those with
fluctuating conditions asking them to report every change to their
condition would prove very stressful."
