Following the announcement of expanded eligibility for the Disabled Persons Railcard, we've seen a disturbing wave of disability hate directed at people with ADHD. This has been fuelled by some media outlets, who use clickbait headlines stirring up ableism to bring in more views.

Real people are being affected by this animosity. It has to stop. If you've seen media coverage stirring up disability hate, please tell us about it so we can work to change the narrative. You can send a report to Disability Media Action here: buff.ly/bI28MJt

But tell us again how PIP is too easy to claim. 🤔 Cases like Rachael's further highlight the obvious, pointless cruelty of the current PIP system. Ill and Disabled people shouldn't have to fight an uphill battle to get the support they need to live. buff.ly/a6KGycT

Today’s budget announcement shows that the Government is taking some steps to prevent further deprivation. The VAT cut and £100 council tax relief are promising starts to addressing some of the fuel poverty concerns that we have been urging the government to address. #Budget2026

Small steps towards tackling poverty are welcome, but Disabled people deserve more than just minimal existence. We need dignity, choice, independence and proper investment in the support and services we rely on.

The Timms Review was a first and modest step towards coproduction. We hope next year’s White Paper responding to the Milburn and Timms reviews includes a thorough consultation process, in which Disabled people and our organisations are heard.

This is an opportunity for the Government to genuinely commit to the principle of ‘nothing about us without us’ and support Disabled people not just to survive, but to live with choice and independence.
