Disability Campaign Hits 22,000 signatures

397147_10150564360418770_816767308_n[1]A campaign to save Disability Living Allowance from abolition has reached a total of 22,000 signatures on an official government epetition website. Disability campaigners from around the UK have come together to form the campaigning group “Say No to DLA Disability Living Allowance Reform”.  Campaigners say the abolition of DLA may result in up to two million disabled people being worse off as a result of the changes to Personal Independence Payments.

Campaigners are hoping to reach 100,000 signatures to force parliament to debate the petition.
