Disabled people set to lose £28.3bn of support
Hundreds of thousands of disabled people will be hit simultaneously by up to six different welfare cuts, according to new research published yesterday by Demos.
The shock figures, the result of analysis commissioned by disability charity Scope, reveal for the first time the cumulative impact of the Government’s welfare reform plans with an astonishing £28.3bn being taken out of disabled people’s pockets by 2018.
Up to 3.7million disabled people will be affected.
