Categorizing individuals with Short Bowel Syndrome as having Limited Capability for Work (LCW) under Universal Credit, implying they may be expected to work in the future, reflects an ableist and medically inaccurate stance. Unlike conditions that can improve over time, Short Bowel Syndrome is a lifelong and progressive disorder that only deteriorates as the body struggles with chronic malabsorption, fatigue, and related complications.

Universal Credit should be a lifeline for those facing financial hardship, but its punitive approach often creates additional struggles rather than relief. By knowing your rights, documenting your interactions, challenging unfair decisions, and raising awareness, you can defend yourself and join the movement for a welfare system that prioritizes the dignity and rights of its claimants over fiscal cuts Change will require a collective effort. But with ongoing advocacy and persistence, we can strive for a fairer welfare system that respects the diverse needs and rights of all claimants.
