We're supporting the #purplelights20 campaign today at Bray Area Partnership to mark International Day of People with Disabilities. The theme this year is Not All Disabilities Are Visible. Find out about the work of #bapdisabilitynetwork here: and check out our #disabilitybray website here: Disability Bray #SICAP Wicklow Local Community Development Committee - LCDC National Learning Network Festina Lente Lakers: Meeting Special Needs Cairdeas Clubhouse Sunbeam House Services Autism Initiatives Triple A Wicklow Wicklow County Council Bray Municipal District - Wicklow County Council Greystones Municipal District - Wicklow County CouncilDecember 3 marks International Day of People With Disabilities, and for 2020’s virtual celebrations, the theme ‘Not all Disabilities are Visible’ also focuses on spreading awareness and understanding of disabilities that are not immediately apparent, such as mental illness, chronic pain or fatigue, sight or hearing impairments, diabetes, brain injuries, neurological disorders, learning differences and cognitive dysfunctions, among others.

These are just some examples of the millions of people currently living with a disability that is not immediately apparent, and a reminder of the importance of removing barriers for all people living with disability, both visible and invisible.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, isolation, disconnect, disrupted routines and diminished services have greatly impacted the lives and mental well-being of people with disabilities right around the world. Spreading awareness of invisible disabilities, as well as these potentially detrimental— and not always immediately apparent— impacts to mental health, is crucial as the world continues to fight against the virus, and for inclusion for people living with disability.
