This policy is awful for so many reasons, but I’m not sure why they’ve used this woman as an example, she’s spent 30k after only being out of work 4 months? Something odd is going on there.
I had my bannisters amended to facilitate going up and down stairs, bought chair raisers, a raised loo seat and frame, a shower mat and attachment, a device for picking things up from the floor and another for putting on socks and underwear, and a washing sponge on a long stick.
I just can’t see how that’s 30k of work. She also says she stocked up on laundry pods so maybe she has thousands?
I’m not mad at her specifically, she’s free to do whatever, I just feel like with the tories making all these awful policy decicions victimising vulnerable people that they could have found a better case to discuss how this is badly affecting disabled people. There’s terminal cancer victims having their benefits cut off for not applying to jobs, why not speak to them?
She might also have a high rent, she will not have got any benefits till her savings fall below 16k and
only got full benefits after it falls below 6k.

Oh. It says she spent a lot of it renovating her house for after her operation.

Because those that specialise in disabled support. Really do run on huge profits.
Any item designed to suppirt disabled people claims medical use. And ups the price 10x.
Ans as most disabled are less able to do it rhemselves. It really is a rip off.
