About this event

Join Independent Lives in Worthing as we unveil their report on the impact of the cost-of-living crisis on disabled people and carers. This is a chance to meet Independent Lives researchers and hear the personal stories of those who shared their experiences with us.

For several months now, Independent Lives has been working alongside the NHS, researching the effects of the cost-of-living crisis on disabled people and carers. We're pleased to announce our local launch event in Worthing.

Join Independent Lives as they share the findings of their research and have a chance to meet those involved in the research, discuss next steps and share your own views on how we can tackle the challenges currently being presented to disabled people and carers in our communities.

What to expect

You will be able to review a full copy of Independent Lives research available as a booklet to take away. We will also be hosting an introduction, two short films and Q&A. In addition you will have plenty of time to talk with our researchers or with the other attendees as well as providing your own feedback on the cost-of-living crisis.

There are several car parks in Worthing, and you can find a full list here. A bus stop is located outside the venue, and the Worthing train station is just a few minutes away, making access to the event easy.
