Sign the petition today to help start making changes - petition.parliament.uk/petit… The majority of disabilities aren't visible. We need a symbol that represents ALL disabilities. Thank you so much for your support, it makes a huge difference! 💜

Some #disabilities are very difficult for society to accept. A person with an #InvisibleDisability is often assumed to have a learning disability or is a “faker”. Being accused of “faking it” is the hardest assumption to overcome. People “expect” to see proof.

Using the right terminology is absolutely essential. It can reduce misunderstandings, erase misconceptions and improve communication.
We Don't Use: Victim, handicapped, retarded, differently-abled, cripple, normal, ParaOlympics, Confined to a wheelchair, afflicted by a disability. We Use: disability, person with a disability, person without disabilities, Paralympics, they use a wheelchair, they have a disability.

Every disabled person is different. People with invisible conditions can sometimes struggle to get support. Catch Scope’s @jamestaylor2 talking about this tonight at 7.30pm on @ITVTonight’s ‘Hidden Disabilities: What’s the Truth?’. #ITVTonight
