The Trinidad and Tobago Blind Welfare Association has called for an increase in disability grants and hopes government will announce this in the 2025-26 Budget presentation.

Association Chief Executive Kenneth Suratt said the grant should be above the poverty line to assure a better quality of life for persons with disabilities.

Mr Suratt also said persons applying for disability grants have to wait almost a year to be approved, and this needs to change.
