Covid 19 pandemic and lockdown.<\/p><p>Standard and easy read formats were circulated and the survey received 936 respondants.<\/p><p>The main findings include:<\/p><p>90% of respondents said that the pandemic has had a negative impact on their mental<br \/>health<\/p><p>80% of respondents were not included in the official shielded group, yet 57% of those<br \/>had support needs.<\/p><p>56% of respondents had experienced some difficulty sourcing Personal Protective<br \/>Equipment (PPE)<\/p><p>62% of respondents have experienced one or more health visit being stopped due to<br \/>Covid-19.<\/p><p>Disabled people are less satisfied with their care plans since the outbreak of Covid-19.<br \/>Prior to the outbreak, 58% felt satisfied or very satisfied and this has reduced to 35%<br \/>after Covid-19.<\/p><p>A third of disabled people believe that their local authority is not doing anything significant<br \/>whilst 76% of disabled people are dissatisfied with the help
