Nearly half of disabled people in the UK feel it’s harder to get or keep a job, and to progress in their careers. This comes from new research by the Business Disability Forum.

Across the UK, disabled people are facing rising costs and changes to benefits. Many are being pushed into poverty. Nada, a single mum and social worker, was suddenly struck by chronic pain. This forced her to leave her job and face financial hardship.
Nada on the phone and looking off to the side. The rest of the image has text that reads: "Suddenly, I thought I'd lose everything, but Scope gave me hope." - Nada. A Scope logo sits at the top of the page. The 'O' is a Christmas bauble.

Would you work the rest of 2025 for free? 📅 Today is Disability Pay Gap Day, meaning that's effectively what disabled workers will do. @The_TUC found that disabled workers, on average, earn £4,081 less than non-disabled workers. The equivalent of 49 days without pay.
