Have your say and help to shape the future of our welfare and support system…
We hope you will take part in the current consultation Pathways to Work: Reforming Benefits and Support to Get Britain Working Green Paper.
The consultation wants to hear from a wide group of people, in particular people with disabilities and health conditions, and disability organisations. The consultation seeks views on the approaches government should consider around reform of the health and disability benefits system and employment support.
The consultation can be found at:
Pathways to Work: Reforming Benefits and Support to Get Britain Working Green Paper - GOV.UK
The consultation closes at 11:59pm 30th June 2025.
We will publicise planned public consultation events that will be arranged by DWP. We have been informed that there will be accessible virtual and face-to-face events undertaken.
Disability Solutions West Midlands is a Stoke-on-Trent based charity which is run by people with disabilities for the benefit of people with disabilities.
Cancer is the toughest thing that many of us face, and the impact of a diagnosis of cancer on your finances might not be one of the first things you think about. But having cancer can be expensive. Your income may go down and your spending may go up. You may have to pay for a special diet, child care, higher heating cost or travel to a hospital.
