Great to be able to support Christopher Wood MBE. Six years ago I set up sector champions to radically improve accessibility and service for disabled customers. Airline travel was particularly challenging. Huge progress now made including on getting wheelchairs into the cabin. Well

We need to do more to improve accessibility in Parliament. The upcoming refurbishment provides the perfect opportunity to create a more accessible space for all policy makers. #PalaceofWestminster #AccessiblePolitics disabilitynewsservice.com/disabled-peers…

The current government is inept to say the least How can you get more disabled people into work when nobody is hiring? Helen Whately MP #Welfare #WelfareReform #ReturnToWork Jobs market is flashing a warning sign to Rachel Reeves thetimes.com/article/b8210c…

Fantastic to see some of our members at the The Disability Policy Centre report launch in Parliament on access to voting. We must make sure voting is accessible to all and the disability community do not feel disenfranchised. #Disability #AccessibleVoting

Our Chair, James Windsor-Clive , has contributed to @brightblue’s latest welfare reform essay collection. His piece sets out a Conservative vision for a welfare system that is compassionate, sustainable, and supports disabled people into work. brightblue.org.uk/wp-content/upl…

A productive conversation with the Party Chairman, Kevin Hollinrake MP, about improving accessibility for Conservatives. The key asks were: - A concessionary rate for disabled members of the Party. - A CCHQ contact with the disability brief. - Reduced exhibition rates at
