A message from the Hardest Hit Campaign:

 

Dear Campaigner

Since the Welfare Reform Bill was introduced in Parliament last year, thousands of you have marched, tweeted Peers and visited your MPs.

And it's starting to work. Your campaigning inspired Lords to reject key government proposals on Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) and force important concessions on the introduction of the new benefit set to replace Disability Living Allowance (DLA).

Now it's down to MPs to vote for these changes when the Bill moves back to the Commons in the next few weeks. Their votes will determine the fate of hundreds of thousands of people who rely on disability benefits.

Can you email your MP and ask them to fight for fair benefits?

 

Why not click on the link below and show your support by completing the very short and simple form with your views?

Transport Scotland are consulting on the future of Scotland’s railways. The contract for rail passenger services (ScotRail) finishes in 2014 and new arrangements need to be put in place. Transport Scotland want Scotland’s rail services to be developed with passenger interests at the heart.

 

You can complete the consultation by clicking on the link below:

Transport Scotland Consultation

 

The consultation asks a wide range of questions but does not specifically address issues for disabled people. Due to this the Scottish Disability Equality Forum (SDEF) are asking for  views of disabled passengers so that they can be passed onto Transport Scotland.

 

The SDEF questionnaire can be completed at the link below:

SDEF Questionaire
