An image announcing a podcast episode. There is a headshot photo in a circular frame of a white-skinned, middle-aged woman sitting in her electric wheelchair. Surrounding the photo, pink text on an off-white background says,’Pink Nest podcast (with a pink butterfly image), 009, Suzanne Bull MBE, 9th Episode.’ Pink lines either side of the photo depict sound waves.

Adding my voice to the #TakingThePip campaign & asking our government to STOP these barbaric & inhumane cuts to the #DisabledCommunity Up to 1.3 million people could be forced into poverty & this is a crisis!
The government is proposing huge PIP cuts here’s why that’s a disaster. Disabled households already face: 63% higher living costs £1010/month in extra expenses, food bank reliance, struggles to afford heating, rent or food. Rising poverty. Up to 1.3 million people could be hit. This isn’t just a policy change - it’s a crisis. Ask your government to STOP #TakingThePip
