Former butcher Kelvin has been housebound for over two years because of four heart attacks, two strokes, diabetes and the loss of his right leg. He was placed in the work-related activity group for Employment and Support Allowance and lost his appeal. He says, “It’s not fair on me and it’s not fair on my family. If only they would come and see me in person, perhaps they would understand. I used to have hobbies. I used to have a profession. I used to have a life. Now, I’m in constant pain every second of every day. It’s crazy – what job could they send me for?” His consultant says it is a “ridiculous decision.”
