🚨BREAKING 🚨 . Our new polling finds overwhelming majority of British public reject REJECT cuts and will increase pressure on the NHS. 💥51% say of PIP recipients say they would be less active upon losing their payments💥.

🚨NEW REPORT🚨.The Impact of Universal Credit Bill on Disabled People's Access to Physical Activity. 77% of people we polled use their LCWRA benefits to pay for physical activity - benefit cuts will have devastating public health impacts. Full report👇

See here for more info on the work we are doing in the Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin areas:

Our co-production lead Liddie, along with GYA programme manager Laura, recently attended the Telford & Wrekin Co-Production Conference alongside Energise Shropshire. A chance to learn more about co-production in the area and share our work for the 'GYA Local' project.

We are devastated to hear the Government's Universal Credit Bill has gone through. This will halve the UC health element for thousands of Disabled people, taking away £3,000 a year when they already cannot afford essentials. Disabled lives are more than numbers on a spreadsheet.

Ahead of Wednesday's vote, we'll continue our campaigning to get the Government to #BinUCBill, which would cut the Universal Credit health element in half, from £416 to just over £200. Disabled peoples' lives are not a cost-cutting exercise!.

📝Designing the Future of Physical Activity Together. For #CoProWeek2025, our co-production lead, Liddie Bone, takes us through the importance of supporting Disabled people to be physically active - led at the helm by Disabled voices and experiences.

When done right, co-production can be hugely empowering for us. When we are given a voice in decision-making, everyone wins!. 💬Hear Rachel, a member of our co-production Sounding Board, about how this process built up her self-esteem #CoProWeek2025

Why Co-Production Matters: Shaping Policy With Disabled People, Not For Them. @DisRightsUK Chair, Liz Leach Murphy wrote this blog for #CoProdWeek2025 about the importance of co-production as a strategy.

When services are genuinely co-produced, they work better, because co-produced solutions make the most of the shared expertise of the professionals and the people who have direct experience of using them. Working in partnership can only be positive!

🚨Disabled man lost his PIP after being filmed by DWP at his cricket club🚨. It's deeply concerning that Disabled people face punishment for being active. We must resist the welfare reform bill that will only make the DWP more harmful!.

It's co-production week! An opportunity to learn more about how to design and develop things with lived experience at their forefront. Here's Rachel, a member of our co-production group, talking about why it's so important! #CoproductionWeek.@SCIE_socialcare

We reject the Government's 'concession' that would create a two-tier disability benefits system. It is not a concession to have a system where future generations of Disabled people receive less support than Disabled people today. The only concession we accept: kill the bill!.
