Disabled people threatened by the government's decision to scrap a fund providing vital assistance won a big victory yesterday when it was ruled unlawful by the Court of Appeal.
The case was brought by five disabled users of the independent living fund (ILF), which currently provides support enabling nearly 20,000 disabled people to live independent lives.
The High Court had previously ruled that the government's decision to axe the fund was lawful.
