New research from ACAS has found that nearly 70% of Disabled people have experienced issues at work. Employers have wrongly questioned requests for adjustments, delayed support, and failed to discuss workplace needs. 🔗 buff.ly/E71ygkQ

Social care should work for everyone who needs it. While plans for a National Care Service have been welcomed, working-age Disabled people appear to be excluded from the initial proposals. Support should be based on need, not age. We need a social care system that supports all Disabled people.

If there's a news story about Disabled people, surely Disabled people should be part of it? It seems obvious. But research into the press shows that it's rarely the case. It's so easy to put this right - if you're writing about Disabled people - talk to one! 🔗 buff.ly/KPZTJZl

We share your frustration. PIP should allow Disabled people to live easily, but lots of people tell us that the criteria don't reflect their reality. Here's hoping all of the Disabled people inputting into the new system have a positive impact.

Everyone needs opportunities at work. ‘Disability Confident’ should help employers to reach and grow Disabled talent. But companies can be awarded 'Disability Confident’ status without employing a single Disabled person. Success should mean evidence. buff.ly/eo6uLrr
