The @AccessToWorkCol say 67% of those receiving AtW would not be in work without the scheme. This would equate to up to 50,000 disabled people.
Self-employed disabled people face waiting up to 19 months for Access to Work decisions, evidence shows #AccessToWork #DWP @CommonsPAC @CommonsWorkPen @AccessToWorkCol @TheDPCG @OctoberPoppy disabilitynewsservice.com/self-employed-…

50 MP's asked parliamentary questions on Access to Work this year. Leading the way in 2025: 1. @MartinWrigley – 18 2. @LouHaigh – 13 3. @Helen_Whately – 6 If your MP is asking questions, thank them. If not, ask why. #AccessToWorkCollective #AccessToWork
If you want to get involved, support the work or simply stay connected, reach us at [email protected]. Everyone is welcome.
From May to Nov 2025, the Collective grew faster and achieved more than we ever imagined. What started as a way to stop people navigating Access to Work alone has become a national effort shaped by thousands of disabled people and allies. linkedin.com/posts/accessto… #AccessToWork
DWP failure to provide up-to-date figures on Access to Work cuts is ‘major warning sign’, say campaigners #DWP #AccessToWork @AccessToWorkCol disabilitynewsservice.com/dwp-failure-to…
‘Unacceptable’ new figures show rejections of Access to Work claims have shot up this year #AccessToWork #DWP @AccessToWorkCol disabilitynewsservice.com/unacceptable-n…
We’re calling for the Government to fix the delays and barriers that are holding disabled people back from working. Thousands have already added their names, but there’s still time to make sure your voice is heard. Sign our open letter: forms.gle/G9B4ax2TY7xqMd… #AccessToWork
Access to Work is only treasury funded programme that has sustainability helped to reduce the disability employment gap. By funding Access to Work and administering it properly you would get hundreds of thousands of disabled people off the waiting list for it, actually in work.
"The stories we're hearing about people who never thought they could work, getting into work through this kind of help are really encouraging" - Work and Pensions Secretary Pat McFadden Connect to Work is supporting thousands of sick and disabled people gov.uk/government/new…
@UKLabour Fixing Access to Work will only help you achieve your goal of getting more disabled people in work. 62,000 people are on a waiting list. You already have a solution, it just needs more funding and to be administered properly.
