    Good morning @tomwalker.

    You can read more about the Disability Price Tag report on our website. It shows the methodology, how it was calculated and there's a list of sources and both the technical report and summary report available on that web page too.

    Our analysis shows: on average, disabled households (with at least one disabled adult or child) need an additional £975 a month to have the same standard of living as non-disabled households.
