First, let's set the scene with a couple of key facts:

๐Ÿ‘‰ In the UK alone, it is estimated that 1 in 5 people have a disability

๐Ÿ‘‰ 80% of those people have an invisible disability

๐Ÿ‘‰ The UK workforce contains over 4.4m disabled people

Okay, now onto the bad stuff๐Ÿ‘‡

By December of 2021, the percentage of disabled people who are either unemployed or economically inactive had risen to 47.7%
