Mary Laver's Fight for Independence.
I appreciate the importance of supporting disabled people to live independently and in their local community and I know that many people value and rely on the funding they receive from the Independent Living Fund (ILF). Indeed, 19,000 people currently receive an average of £300 per week through the ILF and I know that many disabled people and their families will be understandably worried about the Government’s proposal to axe the ILF.
Please watch this short film detailing my constituent, Mary Laver’s, fight to save the ILF.
