An electric wheelchair is a battery-powered mobility aid that provides effortless movement without causing fatigue. Unlike manual wheelchairs, these chairs do not require upper-body strength or assistance, as they can be controlled using a joystick or remote control.
While ordinary citizens face austerity, rising living costs, and funding cuts, Members of Parliament continue to enjoy generous salaries, expenses, and perks, often without meaningful public oversight. Why do those in power operate by a different rulebook, and who holds them accountable?
Health officials have issued warnings: cases of typhoid are at an all-time high, with most infections linked to travellers returning from endemic regions such as South Asia and parts of Africa. The illness, caused by Salmonella Typhi, spreads through contaminated water and food, leading to high fever, abdominal pain, vomiting, and sometimes internal bleeding or death if left untreated.
Trussell Trust has issued a grave warning to the UK Government: if planned welfare reforms and budget cuts continue, an additional 340,000 people in households with a disabled member will be forced into hunger and hardship by 2030. For many of these families, it isn’t just a question of putting food on the table — it’s a question of survival.

Disability and poverty are deeply intertwined, and when they co-exist, the barriers multiply. Families with disabled children are more likely to experience financial hardship, social exclusion, and mental health challenges, yet they often receive the least support. According to recent research, including findings from The Childhood Trust, the cost of living crisis has placed even more strain on already stretched services, making it harder for social workers to meet the needs of families with disabled children.
As outrage grows over a disabled woman being ignored by the Disability Minister, public attention turns to political ideologies like the Fabian Society—and whether the welfare state is being restructured under a cloak of cold reform.
To truly support vulnerable families, we must see poverty for what it is—a pervasive risk factor that influences every other domain of a child’s life. More than just economic deprivation, poverty reduces access to opportunity, stability, and wellbeing. Investing in early intervention, social work training, disability inclusion, and long-term support for care leavers and young carers is essential.
