Lanyards

Ok I am seeing a lot of things about these lanyard or hidden disability things and I just want to know more about them really. 

Are they just for autism or can they be for multiple mental illnesses? Do you have to prove that you have these illnesses when applying? Or can anyone get them? Do they cost anything? Where would they be most beneficial? But also would wearing one of these lanyard thingies make you more vulnerable to those horrible people who like to take advantage? 

Sorry for the silly questions, I’m just considering getting one myself but I don’t know much about them or how to apply for them.

  • I have actually been looking at this this week, and thinking about for some time about using in certain contexts. To get the coloured hidden disabilities lanyard you need to hold a registered as disabled card (which costs around £20) you can register and buy the lanyanrd at the same time.

  • Ooh what’s a coloured hidden disability lanyard? Is that for people who are physically disabled? I’m looking into getting the sunflower personalised lanyard but undecided on whether to have the regular one or the extra one with the high tec thingy. I don’t want to upload a pic of myself though haha
