Act now to stop cuts to benefits for deaf young people

This week the NDCS Campaigns team have published this appeal for support:

"Deaf young people across the UK are in danger of losing their disability benefits. The UK Government is scrapping DLA for people over 16 and replacing it next year with a new benefit called 'PIP'. Many deaf young people now stand to lose vital financial support.

You can challenge this by emailing the UK Government now to tell them how they can change PIP so deaf young people won't lose their benefits.

Taking action now could give deaf young people back the benefits they need."
