Join the Disability Benefits Survey

posted: 26/08/2010

We are keen to find out what people living with HIV think about how the benefits system works. The survey is organised by the Disability Benefits Consortium (DBC), a network of different disability charities and campaigns, including NAT (National AIDS Trust). George House Trust supports the coalitions study.

Please take part in the survey here

Finding out about you and work, Employment Support Allowance, Housing Benefit, Disability Living Allowance

The survey asks what you think about work, and if you have ever claimed Employment and Support Allowance – the new benefit for people who cannot work due to ill health or disability. It also asks about Housing Benefit and Disability Living Allowance.

The government is planning major changes to benefits, and already we know many people with HIV have serious problems with disability benefits. To campaign well for people living with HIV we need to know more about the experiences of people living with HIV, good and bad.
 

The survey ends on 20 October 2010. Take part in the survey in here please

If you have any questions about the survey or NAT's work on benefits, contact Sarah Radcliffe, NAT's Policy Officer
