Health Minister Mike Nesbit in a suit stands next to the DPAC Northern Ireland logo and text opposing the Health & Social Care Reset Plan.
The Department of Health's Reset Plan suggests home care charges.
DPAC NI urges Mike Nesbitt to scrap this harmful idea. It punishes disabled people & undermines rights.
We demand dignity, not debt.

I’ve written to @clairehanna.bsky.social & @columeastwood.ie urging them to vote AGAINST the Assisted Dying Bill on Friday.
As a disabled activist, I’ll be in London protesting. This bill is not compassion — it’s a threat to our lives.

Yellow sign with "Warning Scam Alert" and an icon of a person carrying a money bag, placed on a white keyboard background. A logo appears in the top right corner.
🚨 SCAM ALERT: Fake texts claiming to be from DWP are targeting disabled people. They ask you to report a “change in circumstances” via a link.
❌ Don’t click. It’s a scam.

May the 4th be with you — not with the Empire at Labour HQ.
Disabled people face cuts, barriers & now the threat of assisted dying. Labour vanishes, then returns with spin.

Labour’s planned disability benefit cuts could push 250,000+ people—including 50,000 children—into poverty. The true cost? £2bn more than reported.
