End the Violence and Torture of Disabled Adults and Young People in So-Called Care Homes

Join our campaign planning event to discuss ending the violence and torture of our Disabled adults and Young people.
While education, health and social care is being underfunded, profits are being made through incarceration and segregated provision in which Disabled people are subjected to tactics of violence, harm and torture. This is a historical systemic failing, recently re-highlighted by the BBC, Guardian and ALLFIE:
“The failures behind the scandals, by contrast, are rooted in systems that are massively opaque. In the case of children’s homes and residential schools, the bodies responsible include Ofsted, local councils and a tangle of profit-making companies.” Guardian, April 2023
The statistics speak for themselves: The top 20 private providers making £250m+ in annual profits, alongside a 9% cut in funding per pupil (Guardian).
We want to spend this money on improving the life chances and opportunities for ALL Disabled people; the government want to lock them up and pour profits into shareholder returns for corporations!
