This idea passed at Student Panel. The Equalities Officer has been working on this idea and has introduced landyards across campus. We will wait for a full update, before we can say it has been implemented.

Edward Maxfield has submitted this big idea on behalf of the Disabled Students Society.

 

We would like to see better awareness of the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Scheme on campus.

This could include joining the Global sunflower network or having better provision and training in regards to Sunflower scheme users but we want to leave this up to the university to implement in a way they see appropriate.

Sunflower lanyards were historically seen as mask exemption lanyards or some people don't understand the meaning behind them, but we want to ensure every person on campus knows what the Sunflower scheme means and how best to support someone with invisible disabilities.
