| Tasks you struggle with on a day-to-day basis: Mobility is my main concern together with subluxations and joint instability, my meniers affect balance and I fall easily I have just fractured my ribs due to falling. I also suffer with fatigue and find it a struggle to cook as my joints are painful, I find it difficult to bend or stand for any period of time. |
| Expected income you will lose if the Green Paper cuts are imposed: I would loose the majority of my income as its the only benefit I receive, I use this income to manage on a daily basis as my work income does not cover what I need in regards to special diet and help in the home. |
| Expected problems if you tried moving into work, with support from a work coach: I work at the moment from home but can only manage a few hours a week. |
| Anything else to tell us: I feel that the government are using disabled people to get them out of a hole, surely this is totally wrong they are making life worse for people who really need help when all the members of parliament and people in government are getting wealthier. We are at the bottom of the pile and they want us to go even lower. For the people out there that genuinely need this help you will be doing a great disservice to your welfare system and to Britain as a whole. |
