## Caption

Not every disability is visible. Some are just not obvious - this can include being deaf or hard of hearing! The last time I traveled I wore my HDSunflower.us lanyard. I found my first one at the San Jose Airport and it was so helpful! I haven’t seen many spots displaying their lanyards and cards but I have asked several information desks and about 20% of the time they know what I”m talking about and have them to provide. At San Jose, the airport staff and employees knew immediately that I might need extra support and were quick to ask or offer. The Sunflower is recognized as a symbol for people with non-visible disabilities. 

Based out of the UK the lanyards are available in 230 airports worldwide. Make sure to ask your check in counter or the airport information desk! If your airport doesn’t have any yet they are available on their website www.hdsunflower.com 🌻 There is also a great “I support the sunflower” lanyard and pin set!

Comment 🌻 and tag a friend if you don’t have one yet and I’ll pick a winner at random on Sunday, 11/17/2024!
