Send your current AtW problems to DeafATW to to raise with Stephen Lloyd (Chair of the APPG on Deafness) - read more below:

DeafATW has an opportunity to give Stephen Lloyd MP, chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Deafness, evidence of:

1)    New and current problems people are having with AtW

2)    Old problems (e.g. problems with the 30 hour rule) that are still problems now, that not been sorted out. 

This may be a real opportunity for you to get your problems with AtW sorted out. 

This is because Stephen Lloyd has said he will take all the information I give him to Mark Harper, the Minister for Disability, so that he really understands the problems.  I can’t promise that this will help, but I think it is worth trying.

On Wednesday 3rd December I will be giving Stephen five detailed examples of the problems (I have these already), and a summary of other people who have still got problems.

These will not be anonymous, your name will be used, so that the DWP can check that the details are true, and maybe try to sort things out for you. 

If you want me to give information about you and your AtW problems to Stephen Lloyd MP, please fill in the form on the next page and send to me by 30th November 2014.  I’ve used a form because I know it is really difficult to explain about problems with AtW, and I just need a summary.  If anyone wants more details they will be able to contact you directly.

You can fill the form in electronically (on the computer) or print, write it, scan it and send it to me.  If you need to post it to me, please email me to ask for my address.  The explanation about the form takes longer to read than to fill it in!  If anything isn’t clear, email me.
