England, United Kingdom
Joined July 2011
We’re proud members of the Disabled Children’s Partnership and are backing the #FightForOrdinary campaign, showing how the SEND system can be transformed without taking away legal rights or protections. Find out more and ask your MP to add their support:
It’s time to fix the SEND system. A whole generation of disabled children and those with additional needs are being let down by a broken education system. #FightForOrdinary

We're backing the @1adass #CareCantWait campaign, shining a light on the importance and impact of good adult #SocialCare. Four in five of us will need care at some point but public awareness remains low. Find out more and join us in showing your support:

Today MPs will vote on the Universal Credit and #PIP Bill. While we welcome gov’t listening to issues raised, we remain concerned that plans are being rushed through without proper engagement, create a two-tier system and will drive families into poverty.

We continue to be concerned that the Universal Credit and Personal independence Payment Bill is being rushed through and 'concessions' risk creating a two-tier system for disabled people.

There is a great deal of concern about what this Bill - and the Green Paper on #WelfareReform still out for consultation - mean for people's lives. We urge MPs to put disabled people at the heart of this Bill as it begins its journey through Parliament.

👏 VODG has long supported the campaign calling on.Government to Guarantee our Essentials led by @jrf_uk and @TrussellUK - more important than ever with the introduction of the Universal Credit and PIP Bill today.
‼️ Nearly 8 in 10 low-income, working-age families in receipt of disability benefits went without essentials in May 2025. Today, we're in Parliament with @TrussellUK calling on MPs to Guarantee our Essentials. A future where everyone can afford the essentials is possible. 📢
