Campaign to make the invisible visible
People with hidden disabilities are being encouraged to take advantage of an initiative which aims to make the invisible, visible.
Compassionate Isle of Man is supporting the Sunflower Scheme – a lanyard which discretely identifies that the wearer may need extra help.
It’s hoped it will raise awareness of issues faced by people with chronic medical conditions, mental health issues, learning difficulties and visual or hearing impairments.
Wendy Smith is leading the project – she’s hopeful that Island businesses will show support:
Warning over flare disposal after amenity site fire
Drug-driver jailed after passenger injured in crash
Suspended sentence for 56-year-old in cannabis supply case
Owner of a block of flats fined for failing to meet fire safety regulations
Review of taxi fares extended to assess impact of Middle East conflict
