As we move towards a more inclusive world many public facilities and leisure attractions have information about adjustments available for people with special educational needs and disabilities. For example, theme parks often have ride access passes to avoid the long queues and free entry for one carer.

Some supermarkets have started using the lanyards. The lanyards are available at the Hidden Disabilities store as well as supermarkets, including Tesco and Sainsbury’s
