Being blind or partially sighted isn’t a lifestyle choice. The Chancellor and Welfare Secretary Mel Stride should #FixAccessToWork if they want to help the 36,721 disabled people waiting for employment support.

The UK Government must #FixAccessToWork to ensure disabled people get the support they need to enter and thrive in the workplace. Thank you to Vicky Foxcroft for raising this important issue.
If the Government genuinely wants to help disabled people, it needs to deal with the Access to Work backlog.
Ministers definitely shouldn't be bragging about it going up!
“We will overhaul Access to Work for young disabled people, so they know what equipment, adaptations or personal support they’ll get before they start work.”
Thank you @LeicesterLiz for this welcome commitment to help #FixAccessToWork.
Unlike the Tories @UKLabour will not allow a generation of young people to go off track.
Our new offer will give young people the chance to build a better life with new skills, mental health and employment support, careers advice & work experience.

Many people with sight loss want to work, but face huge obstacles.
The UK Government must invest in high quality, tailored employment support for blind and partially sighted people, including the Access to Work scheme, to create supportive pathways into work. #FixAccessToWork
Urgent Government action is needed to #FixAccessToWork.
Along with the VI Charity Sector Partnership, we wrote to the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions:
At #CPC23 today, we were visited by Secretary of State for Work and Pensions @MelJStride. We discussed the urgent need to #FixAccessToWork. Lengthy delays, commonly as long as three to four months, are putting thousands of jobs at risk for people with sight loss.
Make yourself heard: Tell the Department for Work and Pensions, who run the Access to Work scheme, and your local MP, about the challenges you’ve faced with getting the support you need through the scheme. #FixAccessToWork

#FixAccessToWork
Paying for taxis out of your wages, funding your own assistant to keep your job, withdrawing from career-changing contract because there isn’t a ATW agent to sign off a form. 24,000 people’s jobs at risk. #FixAccessToWork

#FixAccessToWork. This is something that won't wait. We all need to lean into this, because we are all missing out on talented people who want to work and have jobs to do. It's entirely avoidable and needs fixing. @RNIB @Vision_Fdn
We're calling on the UK Government to #FixAccessToWork and take decisive and comprehensive action on delays. RNIB has received calls from blind and partially sighted people who have waited over six months for support. Read our report here: https://t.co/N66h8PvDIE

The inaccessibility of the #AccessToWork scheme is a barrier to employment for the visually impaired community. These delays put blind and partially sighted people’s jobs at risk.

It is unacceptable that 25k disabled people should have their livelihoods and careers jeopardised due to Access to Work delays.
The DWP must enable, not disable people’s efforts to get into work. #fixaccesstowork
