Stroke rehabilitation doctor and researcher. Passionate about 'Taking Charge' as an effective, low cost, safe intervention after stroke and other conditions

Disabled people do not have a duty to work unsuitable jobs. Let's get that clear.
The government *does* have a duty to not dehumanise the million disabled people who want to work but are denied the chance.
