Hidden Disability Sunflower
Our library, aquatic centre and customer service staff recognise the sunflower as the universal symbol of hidden disabilities. Staff can support people with hidden disabilities to access and navigate Council services, fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment.
Wearing a Hidden Disabilities Sunflower lanyard discreetly indicates that you may need additional support, time or understanding.
The Sunflower lanyard creates awareness of hidden disability to people who otherwise wouldn’t recognise it.
It encourages staff to:
- ask if they can help
- be kind
- listen closely
- show respect.
Learn more about the Hidden Disability Sunflower or watch this video.
Hidden Disability Sunflower merchandise is available at our Service Centres and libraries.
