Disability Wales report: ‘Barely Surviving’: The Impact of the Cost-of-Living Crisis on Disabled People in Wales

Disability Wales has produced a report on the impact of the cost of living crisis on disabled people, based on the results of a survey and two focus groups. The report finds that 'disabled people in Wales and across the UK have been systemically let down by their governments and our findings show that trust in Government is at an understandable extreme low'.

‘Barely Surviving: The Impact of the Cost-of-Living Crisis on Disabled People in Wales' considers the impact of rises in energy and water costs; housing, transport and other expenses; wellbeing, physical and mental health and awareness of the support available.
