Hidden disabilities
Traveling with a Hidden Disability
Living and traveling with a hidden disability or condition can be challenging, especially when others may not recognise your need for extra time or understanding. Read on to help plan your visit and learn what to expect.
Hidden Disability Sunflower Program
The Hidden Disabilities Sunflower is a symbol that people can wear discreetly to indicate that they have an invisible disability or condition and may need additional help.
Mornington Peninsula Shire embraces the Hidden Disability Sunflower program. Look for the sunflower on the door of participating Sunflower-friendly businesses including our libraries and Mornington Peninsula Visitor Information Centre.

Autism friendly visits
Social stories can help people on the autism spectrum find out more about an experience before they visit. Here are some Mornington Peninsula experiences that provide social scripts which you can download.
