Disability Review 2008 is the second in an annual series of reports looking at over 1000 disabled people’s views and experiences of everyday issues around the UK. We asked disabled people about a wide range of issues including finance, transport, work and political engagement and the final product is a valuable insight in disabled people’s views on these issues and their lives in the UK. Disability Review 2008 also contains comparative data from last year’s Disability Review so we can see what has changed over the past year. The whole series will provide a valuable indicator of the impact of government’s policies are having on the lives and experiences of disabled people over the years.

This is the third of a series of annual UK wide surveys produced by Leonard Cheshire Disability. The principal objective of the Review is to assess the experiences of disabled people across a number of key areas of life including: education; employment; health and social care; housing; transport and citizenship. It was compiled using responses to a detailed questionnaire that was completed by 1253 people drawn from across the UK. Respondents experienced a range of different impairments, were aged over 18 and included a mix of men and women, single and married, parents and non-parents. They were drawn from nine ethnic groups and from all regions of the UK.
