About this blog

The UN has found ‘grave and systematic’ violations of disabled people’s human rights here in the UK. Globally, over 1 billion people are disabled and governments across the world marginalize us far too often.

Our Disabled People’s Human Rights Network brings together activists from all over the UK to claim our rights and fight for disabled people everywhere.
