People with disabilities turning to food banks due to lack of financial supports 

People with disabilities seeking private-rented accommodation in a housing crisis face enormous challenges 'as most rental properties are unsuitable and cannot be easily adapted'.

People with disabilities cannot find suitable rental homes and some have had to turn to food banks, according to a pre-budget submission from the Rehab Group.

The document has been prepared after consulting with more than 460 service users in 49 focus groups across the country.
