DPAC aims to raise cash for UC training
Disability campaigners in the north of England are raising money to help local communities bracing themselves for the government’s latest benefits overhaul.
Ahead of the rollout of the universal credit benefits cut, Disabled People Against Cuts Sheffield announced yesterday that it was on a fundraising drive to help vulnerable people.
The group is aiming to raise £2,000, to give training to community volunteers who will help those on low wages, lone-parent families, the elderly and disabled people.
