 Contact a Family are conducting a survey which looks at the financial situation of families with disabled children in the UK.
The survey will help Contact a Family to raise awareness of the money worries specific to the families they support and to campaign for change.
A similar survey conducted in 2008 found that:
One in six disabled children lives in a household struggling to afford food and heating
Almost half of families have borrowed money from friends and family, with one in five using the cash to pay their heating bills
One in 14 children with a disability or medical condition is living under threat of losing their home.
You can complete the survey online. |
