It’s been 3 years since the previous Government pledged to improve accessibility standards for new homes. But far too many Disabled people are still stuck in housing that doesn’t meet their needs. Read Inclusion London's statement: buff.ly/sw5okYl #AccessDenied

A powerful call from the London Assembly highlighting the urgent need for accessible homes in London. Hoping the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan takes action and ensures that Disabled Londoners aren’t left behind. #AccessDenied #AccessibleHomes

❗ We don't need more food banks - we need change. Everyone should be able to afford food, bills, and the essentials they need to survive. Repost if you agree.

Habinteg’s research shows that only 1 in 24 planned homes in London will be accessible and adaptable. No one should be left behind when it comes to housing, yet far too many Disabled people still don’t live in accessible homes. It’s time to act. #AccessibleHomesWeek

“When I questioned the kitchen’s accessibility, I was told that I did not need it as my parents would do everything for me” – Richmond resident. 40 years is not a waiting list, it’s a life sentence. Everyone deserves safety, dignity & independence at home. #AccessibleHousing
