Also, Disability Wales are taking part in a mass lobby at Westminster today

On Wednesday 21 May, Disability Wales and its members will travel to Westminster to take part in a mass lobby against the UK Government’s proposals to slash disability benefits — cuts that threaten the financial security and basic human rights of disabled people across the country.

Disabled people seek to make it clear that we will not be silent whilst our rights and livelihoods are dismantled.

Swansea Disabled People Against Cuts (DPAC) send our full support to the Disability Wales delegation.
