Sutton Council proposes charging disabled benefit recipients, drawing criticism from carers.

Sutton Council in London has proposed changes to adult social care that may impose new charges on some disability benefit recipients, drawing criticism from carers who see it as unfairly targeting vulnerable individuals. The council argues that the changes are necessary to address rising care costs and a financial deficit, while still offering support. The consultation on these proposals ends October 27, with concerns raised about their potential impact on disabled residents.
