At last, here are some straightforward, practical and proven answers to our broken welfare system. This is what I’ve learned from nearly 30 years working professionally in the disability field.
We all want to help 1-in-4 workers to fulfil their potential and have happier lives rather than facing risky futures. And benefit-bullying won’t make enough difference.
IT COULD BE YOU…: Handbook for Real People & Policymakers
Previewers have said:
“very useful reading for anyone on a physiotherapy, occupational therapy or medical course as background reading. Anyone involved in the administration and delivery of all disability services should be forced to memorise large tracts too! Policy makers should be high on the list of this group as well.” (Medical professional)
“… The book was bulging with useful information – much of which was new to me, such as the sheer range of help and benefits available if one only knew how to access them. Invaluable to readers, as a nudge to get on and find out to what one is entitled and get applying. … interwove personal experiences with the data – relating the individual to the general – which hammered home the message.” (legal professional)
“… a very necessary and hard hitting book… there is no fudging or avoiding inconvenient truths. I hate statistics with a passion but I could not put it down.” (Disability Advocate)
