Not all disabilities are visible, but they are part of the everyday experiences of many students, staff, and visitors at UTS.

Join us as we celebrate one year of the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Program at UTS, launch our new Sunflower training and relaunch the UTS Sunflower Network.

The Hidden Disabilities Sunflower is a globally recognised program that enables people to discreetly indicate that they may need additional understanding, support or time. It also provides organisations with the tools, training and resources needed to create more inclusive and supportive environments.

This special event will bring together students, staff and allies to explore the importance of visibility, understanding and belonging, and the role we all play in creating a more inclusive and accessible UTS.

Whether you're already part of the Sunflower community or simply want to learn more, everyone is welcome.

🎁 The first 50 people to arrive will receive a complimentary Sunflower goodie bag.
