Petition Give people a right to have online/phone/video Universal Credit appointments

I want the Government to ensure that everyone is able to access Universal Credit appointments by making it mandatory for all appointments to offer online/phone/video appointments.

More details

Having appointments which have to be attended in person can make it very inconvenient, if not impossible, to access for some people. If people live in rural areas or cannot travel easily to appointments, they might struggle to attend appointments. We should also consider the positive environmental impact going online helps too.
