Spartacus Network

Spartacus is a network of sick & disabled people who use social media to highlight the impact of the UK Government's 'reforms' and cuts.

The Centre has supported the work of the Spartacus Network and hosts a number of their important publications in its library. For more information about The Spartacus Network please email Stef Benstead.
