Abstract

Personalization has the potential to transform people’s lives by tailoring support to individual need. The usefulness of personalization is however thrown into critical relief by the known gaps in take-up amongst disabled people from majority and minority populations in the UK. For many people there appear to be aspects of policy and practice that create a barrier to people from minority cultural groups to exercise their human rights. We draw on two case studies to explore the complexity of the personalization when applied to minority cultural groups. Drawing on our empirical findings we suggest ways to incorporate the perspectives of disabled people from minority cultural groups seeking access to direct payments in the UK.
