Disabled people
Key points
- In London, as elsewhere in England, disabled people are over twice as likely to lack work as people who are not disabled.
- Disabled people are less likely to be in work in Inner London than in the rest of the country.
- Lots of statistics are not available by disability status (for example, low-income households in London) which means the picture of poverty, inequality and disability is incomplete.
