THE cost of living crisis has hit every Brit hard – but one section of society is suffering more than most.
Disabled Brits are £1,000 a month worse off than everyone else as they face raised energy prices to charge specialist equipment, and pay more than ever on work to adapt their homes.
Scope charity’s annual Disability Price Tag report reveals that the average disabled household needs an extra £1,122 per month to have the same standard of living as other Brits.
It comes after statistics revealed two in five disabled people were unable to heat their homes properly last winter.
The Sun has been running our award-winning Give It Back campaign to help disabled families get the support they need. Just four per cent of families with disabled children said they got the help they needed.
