Funding for disabled candidates of elected office

The EnAble Fund has been set up in recognition of the additional costs attached to having a disability or health condition and seeking elected office.

The fund helps cover costs of items that would otherwise stop someone from seeking elected office such as assistive technology or British Sign Language interpreters.
