In this new Housing LIN guest blog, Catherine Casserley, a Barrister specialising in equality law, human rights and employment, explores the legacy and limitations of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) 30 years on.

Reflecting on her experience from its inception to today’s Equality Act 2010, she highlights progress made in housing equality, and the gaps that remain. Published as part of our DDA30 series, the blog calls for renewed action towards truly barrier-free housing.
