From Morning Report, 6:47 am on 28 April 2021

There are calls for more support for the families of disabled children - who statistics show are more likely than non-disabled children to live in low income households. Sharleen Tongalea from CCS Disability Action says some families struggle to access the financial help that is available, while some of their essential costs just aren't covered. Social issues reporter Sarah Robson asked her what sort of extra costs families might face.
