Subject: Urgent Need to Address Intersectional Barriers in Disability Support

Dear [MP Name],

I am writing to raise concern about how race, poverty, and disability combine to leave thousands of families without fair access to support.

Black and ethnic minority disabled people face additional delays, disbelief, and discrimination across health, education, and welfare systems. Families in poverty are often denied the resources needed to fight back.

I ask that you: – Back mandatory reporting on race/disability gaps in EHCPs, benefits, and access – Push for inclusive training across health, education, and social care – Support funding for grassroots organisations working on these issues

Thank you for your time and representation.

Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Constituency]
