After 20 years as a carer to a severely disabled young person, I’m now facing barriers I’ve never faced before. Everywhere I go, the answer is “Nimbus.”

No card? No carer entry. No PIP. No Blue Badge. No Carer’s Allowance accepted.

That’s gatekeeping & it’s deeply worrying.

This is a terrifying thread if you have a learning disability.

https://t.co/lVRQ0BcgTQ https://t.co/rBQbxLxiHy. Lord Falconer claims his new amendments to the Terminally Ill Adults bill are stronger. There are not. They are unpicking amendments MPs fought for to protect disabled and vulnerable people. I tried to raise this but there

[Tanni Grey-Thompson @Tanni_GT]

First: he’s made safeguards for people with learning disabilities **optional**.
Those with “substantial difficulty” understanding or communicating can now be *asked* whether they want to waive their advocate — before they’ve even had support to understand what’s happening.

@TorqueVerum @BBCPM First product that came to my mind!

Following the budget, it was announced by the chancellor that there were to be changes to the current Motability Scheme.
For clarification, the Motability Foundation have put together the following FAQ in the hope of clarifying the situation.
Pls share!

@LNER @ChangingPlaceUK @jowhite__ With respect - the above should not take 18 months! Other stations have managed this effectively and their CP toilets are now open.

[Alison Beevers @alison_beevers]

Very rarely do I post on here…. But I am just so disappointed with @LNER #ChangingPlaces at #Retford station. This brand new facility has been locked up for over 18 months now! This is not fair on those who need to use it. @ChangingPlaceUK @jowhite__

[Alison Beevers @alison_beevers]

@LNER @ChangingPlaceUK @jowhite__ I’m sorry but 18 months from its completion is totally unacceptable. It should not have taken this long. If these were standard toilets, the matter would have been sorted within days…. @ChangingPlaceUK

[Alison Beevers @alison_beevers]

@jowhite__ @LNER @ChangingPlaceUK Thank you , I know many of you have been putting pressure on @LNER behind the scenes, but I just don’t understand what the delay is. 18 months is totally unacceptable.
