What One Hungarian Disability Retailer Can Teach the UK About Independent Living

Interviews /

Hungary’s disability equipment system differs from the UK’s, but many of the same barriers remain. This article explains how funding, accessible customer service and practical equipment advice affect disabled people and family carers. It also explores lessons UK retailers and policymakers can take from Értéksziget’s customer-first approach, showing that independent living often depends as much on clear information as on the equipment itself.

What Happened to MERU? How Cerebra Rescued a Vital Service for Disabled Children

Business /

MERU nearly vanished. The specialist charity that built the Bugzi wheelchair and designed switch-adapted toys for disabled children was caught up in the collapse of QEF — a 90-year-old organisation whose closure in 2025 affected many services and thousands of people across the disability sector. Cerebra stepped in to rescue MERU’s work and keep these vital services available to families.

Volunteer in Disability Football – England Football Needs You

Entertaiment /

The England Football approached Disability Horizons because they know our community. Our readers are disabled people, their families, carers, friends, and colleagues – people who already understand that disabled people are just ordinary people who want the same things everyone else does, including the chance to play, contribute, and belong. That’s exactly the kind of volunteer disability football needs, and exactly why I’m proud to support this campaign. If you’ve ever wanted to give something back, this is a brilliant place to start.

From April 2026, Motability Will Monitor Every Journey You Make. No Opt-Out.

Lifestyle /

Motability vehicles are often described as a benefit. That framing misses what they actually are in day-to-day life.

For many disabled people, a Motability vehicle is how you get to hospital appointments that can’t be moved, or school placements that exist miles away because local options don’t meet access needs. It’s how people work, care for family, and manage routines that don’t follow a neat schedule.

That context matters when looking at the changes coming in 2026.

From April, new customers will be placed onto a driving monitoring system called DriveSmart. From July, new leases will include a 10,000-mile annual cap, with higher charges for going over. On paper, those changes might look administrative. In practice, they intersect directly with how disabled people live.
