It impacts on the mental health and wellbeing of so many claimants who have long term illness, disabilities or mental health issues. Article 3 of the Human Rights Act states that it is illegal to subject people to inhumane or degrading treatment. Althoughno causal link between Work capability assessments, deaths and suicides can be categorically proven , there is evidence of hundreds of deaths for people subject to benefit sanctions made after these assessments . Endthis inhumane practice now! Call upon the PM to abolish these degradinginhumane assessments now

People are having their Mobility benefits cut unfairly

Because this is a life skill which would enable them to live full lives post hearing loss. It could help to prevent social isolation and the onset of dementia.

'I, Daniel Blake' is the most important British film of this millennium, highlighting many pressing issues such as - the absurd inhumanity of benefits bureaucracy - how revenge evictions can have disastrous knock-on effects - how the housing crisis impacts many children's educations and upbringings by forcing them to change schools - the shameful prevalence of food bank dependency, and - how some single mothers are forced into sex work through sheer desperation the film should be mandatory viewing for anyone who cares at all about the plight of their neighbour. 'Cathy Come Home' made a huge impact 50 years ago by igniting public consciousness of homelessness, ultimately leading to the creation of Crisis. it was able to have such a profound effect because it was broadcast to the nation on BBC1; it is imperative that Loach's final film be given the same platform today with over 3,500 people sleeping rough, over 73,000 homeless households living in temporary accommodation (of which more than 20,000 were forced to relocate), and more than 1.1 million three-day food supplies given out last year by Trussell Trust food banks alone, our country is truly in crisis as TV licensees, we demand that the BBC plays its part in highlighting the severity of the situation, by acquiring the rights to broadcast 'I, Daniel Blake' at the earliest possible oppportunity

Ability Bow is the only place in inner London that provides long term rehabilitation to help people who have a disability, an injury or a long-term health condition. For many it is be a life-changing experience. There are thousands of people that Ability Bow has helped over the last 10 years. Margaret is a stroke survivor who regained near full use of her body after doctors wrote her off. Albert had a spine broken in two places and learned to walk again. There are hundreds of stories like these here. We are asking for the assistance of a government partner to safeguard the future of this vital service. I do not know where I would be without this place. I started this campaign to raise awareness and make sure that people get the help they need to improve their lives.

As a mother of two young children, I have found myself in the position of having to carry a pram and still hold onto the other child, leaving me and the kids exposed to trips and falls. During the day the station may be quiet and there will be no individuals there to help you. This is not ideal especially if a parent has had a c-section. I have also seen many other parents struggle to navigate the steep staircase located at the station.

Families where the spouse of a disabled adult are already on an extremely low income so having to pay the bedroom tax, which carers for children where for example one parent may be earning an adequate wage are already exempted from, is not only discriminatory, it leads to further financial pressure on top of the stress of being a carer.

Because genuine disabled people are often deprived of this service when they desperately need it.

It is the only hotel in this are for the blind and partially sighted.

Whilst we welcome the move to schedule CBD as a medicine following clinical trials, it must be understood that completely removing it from the market with only 28 days notice is not sufficient time for patients to find alternative ways of maintaining their health. CBD is well documented through clinical research to be non-toxic and non-psychoactive and has no recorded negative side effects in humans, as well as being a powerful anti-inflammatory, anti-spasmodic and anti-epilepsy drug. This move will lead to more vulnerable patients buying untested CBD products on the illicit market, potentially bringing them to more harm or falling prey to unscrupulous cannabis oil scammers as it is an expensive product. Thousands of patients with hundreds of medical conditions ranging from acute to life threatening rely on CBD as a safe and non-toxic form of medical and therapeutic treatment. Patients who are buying CBD products have conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's, Alzheimer’s, Crohn's Disease, Epilepsy, Fybromyalgia, Arthritis, Anxiety, Depression, Cancer, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Elhers Danlos Syndrome, and Chronic Pain. We petition the MHRA to please consider other means of approving CBD products so that patients do not suffer the consequences of this decision whilst stricter regulations are decided upon. Yours Sincerely United Kingdom Cannabis Social Clubs

I was born with head neck and facial disfigurement and only my left eye The right area where my right eye should have been was a beneign tumour. I passed my driving test in 1984 I have driven since within any problems. I am a community staff nurse In 2013 my licence was revoked as I failed the pheripheral vision test due to a congenital problem also due to my disfigurement the machine is not suitable for me. I feel Im being discriminated due to my disability. I am now being redeployed due to not being able to drive anymore. DVLA changed their rulings and policies in 2013 therefore I am not eligible to drive anymore

The government want to change the way disabled people can appeal rejections and claim their benefits. The main change is holding the appeals over the telephone, on a webcam or even by reading submitted paperwork. The other worrying change is replacing a judge with a clerk or solicitor with no experience in disability law. Moving the process out of the courts to a decision made by a clerk or retired lawyer is dangerous as they don't have experience making fair decisions in this area. The clerk would also be given performance indicators likely to contain targets for how many people should be rejected. This makes the process more biased against the disabled person. If the changes go through, disabled people would only have their case heard through a virtual court or by submitting evidence on paper. This makes it much harder for disabled people to give detailed and persuasive evidence and for the clerk, to see how their disability affects their ability to work. When assessments for benefits are wrong, disabled peoples’ lives are turned upside-down. It put my family through months of stress and uncertainty. I was assessed as being fit to work although my condition means I can’t stand without help. But thanks to the appeals process in court, I won back benefits that were vital for my family’s survival. If I had gone through the new process I might not have got the benefits I am entitled to and rely on. For many disabled people receiving benefits can be a matter of life or death. The appeals process currently works for lots of people - these changes will prevent disabled people like me from fairly challenging assessments about a person’s ability to work. I count myself as lucky - I won my appeal and now as a family, we’ve managed to keep our heads above water financially. I worry about everyone else that might be wrongly assessed though, and what the proposed changes will mean for them. Everyone deserves a fair, legal hearing. The government are currently consulting on the changes so it's important we make our voices heard.
