Disability-based violence is receiving growing international attention as the UN CRPD develops new guidelines to identify and address violence, abuse, exploitation, neglect, institutional harm and barriers to justice affecting disabled people worldwide.
The UN Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities has opened its historic 35th Session from 12–27 August 2026, reviewing Chile, Lithuania, Qatar, Slovakia and Sri Lanka during the 20th anniversary year of the UN CRPD. We examine emerging concerns around independent living, psychiatric care, legal capacity, inclusive education, accessibility, digital inclusion, violence against disabled women and the future of global disability rights.
The Welsh Government has raised significant concerns about co-production in the UK-wide Timms Review of Personal Independence Payment (PIP), calling for an independent disabled-led approach to future disability benefit reform. We examine what genuine co-production means, why Wales is challenging the current process, disability rights, safeguarding, the Social Model of Disability and whether PIP could eventually be devolved to Wales.
A disability-benefits website reported as offering £49.99 PIP coaching has sparked questions about vulnerable claimants, paid benefits advice, consumer protection and regulation.

For disabled entrepreneurs, starting and scaling a business can offer far more than the opportunity to generate income; it can provide greater independence, flexibility and control over how, when and where work is carried out. The electronics manufacturing sector may appear highly technical or traditionally associated with physical production environments, but modern entrepreneurship does not necessarily require a founder to be present on a factory floor every day.
