16 November - 16 December is Disability History Month. The month marks the history of disabled people’s struggles for equality and human rights.

This month takes place during a cost-of-living emergency - millions of people up and down the country are facing spiralling living costs whilst their wages are being held down. 

Join us for our event on how the crisis is impacting disabled people, including new research from the TUC on disabled people's pay, and what working people are doing to fight back.  

The event will take place on Zoom. 

Chair:

• Dave Allan, Co-Chair TUC Disabled Workers Committee, Unite

Speakers:

• Ann Galpin, Co-Chair TUC Disabled Workers Committee, NUJ 

• Colleen Johnson, TUC Disabled Workers Committee, NEU

• Ellen Clifford, Disabled People Against Cuts

• Helen Rowlands, Executive member of the Greater Manchester Coalition of Disabled People 

• Jon Luxton, Welsh Parliament Special Advisor

This event had originally been scheduled for 29 November, but has now been moved to 12 December. 

Speech to text and BSL will be provided for this event.
