Hidden Disabilities Sunflower

We proudly support the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Program and encourage anyone with a sunflower lanyard, wristband or pin to wear them to the event. Wearing a sunflower product lets us know that someone has a non-visible disability such as autism and may need some additional support or time. You can learn more about the program and where to find Sunflower Products by heading to: https://hdsunflower.com/au/ We will also have limited Sunflower Lanyards and Pins available to collect on the day.
