We are proud to be part of the conversation during Hidden Disabilities Week and would like to share some feedback about our High Visibility Armbands and how they are making a difference in everyday life. Here’s what we are hearing:
• 'This arm band is a great help for when I am shopping because the staff at the cash tills take a different attitude whenever they see the armband and become more helpful to me.'
• 'This arm band is recognised by some car drivers whenever I cross busy roads.'
• 'Dog walkers talk to me more than they did before so the armband helps with being sociable in local streets.'
• 'The arm band saves explanations to other people who are curious.'
• 'By using the arm band - whenever I use the local train service the platform staff are more likely to come to me and ask if I need help.'
