Making the invisible visible
The sunflower is a discreet way to indicate that you have a hidden disability.
The Hidden Disability Sunflower first started in the UK and then spread across Europe. It’s now recognized in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the USA. Many people with an ABI have an invisible disability. The Hidden Disabilities Sunflower enables people with non-visible disabilities to access the support they need.
Be visible when you choose to be. Wearing the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower discreetly indicates to people around you including staff, colleagues and health professionals that you have a non-visible disability and you may need additional support, help or more time.
You can opt to wear the Sunflower to discreetly be seen in shops, at work, on transport, or in public spaces. Online shopping makes it easy to source lanyards, ID cards, wristbands and badges. For more info visit: www.hiddendisabilitiesshop.com.au
