Summary

Disabled people in Wales are organising a protest outside the Welsh Government building.

They are upset that the UK Government has broken its promises.

They are asking the Welsh government to do its part and support them.

You can join their protest.

4pm to 4.15pm

Tuesday 14th October

Outside the Senedd (Welsh Parliament) in Cardiff

 

The words "We want an Independent PIP Review" in bold and black text, with Independent highlighted in red. On the left there is a tear-out effect of a greyscale photo of a disability protest, and a red-tinted photo of Stephen Timms, the disability minister.

The Disability Minister Stephen Timms was forced to promise UK parliament that there would be no more PIP disability cuts until a review had been co-produced with disabled people.

He has broken this promise.

Disabled people want to run our own, independent, and democratic PIP review.

Disabled People Against Cuts Cymru (DPAC Cymru) will be handing in our open letter with 700 signatures from individuals and organisations. We are calling on the Welsh government to do its part and practically support Disabled People’s Organisations to carry out the review.

Placards, in English and Welsh, with the Disabled People Against Cuts Cymru logo, will say:

“No disability cuts! Disabled people want to run our own independent PIP review. We’re asking the Welsh Government to do its part!”

 

If you are able to, would you consider…

Joining us at the lobby in person on Tuesday 14th.

This will involve: being outside for 15 minutes with placards and possibly a megaphone.

Ask your Senedd member to meet us there.

Let people knowour Google Drive has bilingual social media graphics and placard text, as well as alt text for social media graphics accessibility.

We welcome all support!

This is a graphic advertising a protest. The top half of the image is a picture of the Welsh Government building (the Senedd) with a blue tint, and the bottom half is a ripped paper effect. Text on the top half, in big letters, says: “Protest (Senedd Disability Lobby)”. On the bottom half, text says: “We will be handing in 30 pages of signatures. No disability cuts! Disabled people want to run our own, independent, PIP review.” In bold, it says “We’re asking the Welsh Government to do its part. Tuesday 14th October 2025.” Next to a red map pin, it says: “Cardiff, outside the Senedd, 4pm to 4:15pm”. To the right is the Disabled People Against Cuts Cymru logo, which is a red, pink, blue, green wheel being held by four hands of different skin tones. At the center of the logo is an upside-down black triangle bearing the letters D P A C and the word Cymru.
