The Equality and Human Rights Commission have just published the report of their enquiry into disability-related harassment – “Hidden in Plain Sight”
The report shows harassment as a commonplace experience for disabled people and uncovers a culture of disbelief and systemic institutional failures which prevent it from being tackled effectively.
The report includes a series of case studies to illustrate the issues and a number of recommendations to public authorities to help them deal with the problems uncovered.
