Vicky Foxcroft MP for Lewisham Deptford & Shadow Minister for Disabled People
Recent polling commissioned by Scope has found that a quarter of disabled people are concerned that they will be unable to access a vaccination centre and a third of disabled people are concerned about catching COVID-19 at a vaccination centre.
I asked Michael Gove, the Cabinet Office Secretary, what action the Government is taking to ensure that the vaccine roll-out is fully accessible and safe for disabled people, and how ministers will ensure that no disabled person waiting for their vaccine is left behind.
