You don’t look disabled

A person sits in their car parked in an accessible parking space. A Mobility Parking permit hangs off their rearview mirror. They are staring anxiously at a handwritten note under their windscreen wiper that reads: ‘You don’t look disabled!’

The ‘You don’t look disabled’ conversation explores the diversity of disability and the experiences of people with hidden, or invisible, impairments.

You can watch a replay of our livestream conversation on this topic here.
