The government’s proposal in the health and disability green paper that people should have to be awarded 4 points for one of the daily living activities in order to receive PIP is absolutely mad. Thousands of disabled people will be thrown off PIP and pushed even further into poverty.

This is a seminal moment: a Labour government cutting disability benefits. Not just continuing Tory levels. Cutting. This comes after a week of speculation, itself an act of cruelty by a government toying with people’s dignity. These cuts are disgraceful - and they will cost lives.

The truth of the disability benefit reforms is that Labour know they will push people to suicide with these cuts, and a dead disabled person is a financial win in their eyes.

Love to everyone terrified by today’s benefits announcements—claimants, carers, allies. There’s no making this OK. But know this: it won’t end up as Labour postures. The disabled community will carry on fighting back—lobbying, resisting and mutual aid. Stay safe today please💜

I’m so excited - I got sent these pictures of my wheelchair this morning, built to my exact needs and specifications and will be here next week. She’s so cute!! I love the pink detailing. Very open to suggestions of what to name her!

Tried to have a new carer start this week, but both shifts she came smelling really strongly of perfume and my MCAS just couldn’t cope with it. Back to the drawing board I guess

my wife is running this fundraiser for help resourcing during a long slog of a job hunt. she’s reached 25% of her goal which is amazing, but it’s been stalled out there for a few days, so I’m hoping to get some momentum. any amount helps, and shares are a big deal. www.gofundme.com/f/help-a-tra...

Finally got the final quote for my wheelchair and it’s bumped the GoFundMe up from £8k to £20k. I’m devestated - cried a lot, contemplated giving up completely.

Had a trial and fitting for my wheelchair today. It was so amazing to see all the features it can have! Being able to lay down flat in my chair will change my life. If you can help with my crowdfunder, I would appreciate it so much. It’s the only way I’ll be able to get it. gofund.me/f7901daa

A genuinely good orthotics appointment this morning - come away with two new neck braces (in different styles), a thoracic brace, and I’ve been measured for a body suit to stabilise my shoulders, hips and lower back! Having an orthotist who understands hEDS is amazing
