📢The benefits system should work for disabled people, not against them.
But the flawed assessment process creates enormous anxiety, with many disabled people forced to fight for the right support.
Here are some of Lisa’s experiences of applying for ESA 👇

You may have seen 'colourful crossings' - artistic designs painted on the road at pedestrian crossings - popping up across the UK.
Today we wrote to the @MayorofLondon to outline our safety and accessibility concerns.

1.1 having a separate phone line to buy accessible tickets which means you can’t simply buy tickets at the box office or online. Then there is the fact that you can only have one person with you totally ignoring care givers or the fact we have friends.
Three-quarters of @guidedogs owners (76%) have been illegally turned away by businesses & services, such as taxis, restaurants, shops, cafes, hotels & pubs.
Is this fair?
#Londoners are already getting fed up of e-scooters being left on the pavement, with one person in #Hammersmith showing how easy it is to knock over one. The e-scooters are natural trip hazards & leaving them on pavements is not safe for any pedestrian. The trial needs to halt.⬇️
Excited to discuss the importance of developing an inclusive mindset at the Working Well conference tomorrow! Tickets are still available and you can save 30% using my code INCLUSION, book here https://t.co/0ydAsCd45s

@TfLAccess@TfL@MikScarlet This is outrageous, the health and wellbeing of the public is also under the duty of care held by any public body. How many consultations need to happen to get this message across? Three 1-1 directly with TfL spelling out these dangerous developments!
Er @TfL@TfLAccess ? Just cross the cycle lane & enter the cab? How does a cabbie assist a wheelchair user? How will a visually impaired person know the lane is safe or even where the cab is? You have a PSED to ensure policy do not negatively impact on disabled & older people.
