Members’ discussion space: Welfare reform and NSUN’s Pathways to Work consultation response

Wednesday 4th June 2025, 2.00–3.00pm

Join NSUN’s policy team (Courtney & Kieran) in this informal space to discuss proposed changes to Disability benefits, including what they are and what you can do about them. 

The purpose of the space is to give members an opportunity to: 

  • Connect with other NSUN members concerned about proposed changes to disability benefits
  • Discuss proposals, and how they will impact those living with mental ill-health, distress or trauma
  • Contribute to NSUN’s own response to the Government’s consultation
  • Ask questions about your own consultation responses

Contribute to NSUN’s consultation response

If you would also like to contribute to NSUN’s consultation response or cannot join the discussion group, please feel free to give us your thoughts on welfare reform/NSUN’s consultation response using this form. If you would like to discuss your own consultation response, please feel free to email our Head of Policy & Campaigns, Courtney, at courtney.buckler@nsun.org.uk.

NSUN’s Conduct Agreement

We want virtual NSUN spaces to be safe, welcoming, and inclusive. Harassment, hate speech, and inappropriate behaviour of any kind, verbal or in the chat/Q&A, will not be tolerated. 

We reserve the right to immediately remove any attendee we consider to be in breach of this conduct agreement. This includes anyone making racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, ableist, or otherwise discriminatory, offensive, or hateful remarks.

Removed participants will not be able to re-join the session, or, if applicable, join any of the rest of the sessions in a day or series of events. In order to avoid the derailing of sessions we will not enter into conversations around why conduct was deemed inappropriate in the sessions themselves.
