Using public transport can be a challenging experience if you, or someone you care for, has a hidden disability such as autism, dementia, or anxiety.

Wearing the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower signals to staff that you, or the person you care for, has a hidden disability and may need some extra help when using public transport.

Sydney Trains staff are trained to recognise the Sunflower and provide extra support to wearers including

• Ensuring enough time to get on and off train services
• Help navigating through busy train stations
• Support during disruptions and travel changes
• Help finding quiet spaces as needed

Watch the video below to find out more about the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower. You can also check out the official Hidden Disabilities Instagram, Facebook or LinkedIn.
