The Government’s Independent Living Fund is to be stopped.

Disabled campaigners claim it is violating their human rights and delivered a protest letter calling on Maria Miller, Minister for Disabled People to overturn the decision.

Disabled activists are also planning a vigil & lobby of Parliament on Welfare reform today:

1-3pm
Old Palace Yard, Abingdon St SW1.

They will also be there on Wed 15 Feb from 1-3pm.
