Stuart, National Disability Cardholder

"Having a lanyard is really helpful.”

“There's still a lot of notions that you have to have a wheelchair or walking stick or other aid at all times to have a form of disability. Having a lanyard to show that your illness isn't always present on the outside is really helpful.”

Charlotte, National Disability Cardholder

“Navigating daily life with a disability can be challenging, especially when your condition is not immediately visible. The National Disability Card is designed to provide proof of disability, making it easier for individuals to access various services, benefits, and discounts.”
