Disabled people's experiences of Social Care

A new report by Scope shows that:

  • over half of disabled people using social care (55%) can't get the support they need to live independently
  • one in three (33%) who get social care expect it to get worse in the next five years.

The findings from the Better Care Project 2014-2015:

  • one in ten disabled people, (10%) who rely on social care for all areas of life, fear they will lose support entirely.
