National Disability & Carers Card Scheme

“No one would believe me.” Millie has #CysticFibrosis, a hidden condition. As #CFWeek draws to a close, she & her brother Edward share how their cards help them feel seen & supported. If you’re disabled or a carer, apply at disabilityid.co.uk or nationalcarerscard.org.uk

@james_bear97950 Hello, the card is intended for you to show in various contexts where you would find it helpful for others to know you're disabled, such as at venues, events, in shops, or to members of the public! You can learn more about us here: disabilityid.co.uk

@Disability_ID I have many Disabilities, are these cards NHS & Government approved? Like can I show it to an emergency worker if I have a problem, will it be accepted as proof of my Disabilities?

@Disability_ID @ADKC2 Your website site for a card does not allow me to take a photo how do I contact you for help please

Just presented the National Disability & Carers Card scheme to @ADKC2 Action Disability Kensington & Chelsea. Thank you for having us and for your insightful questions and comments! #Disability #disabilityinclusion

@CharleeWharlee7 Hi Charlee, so glad to hear this, we hope you find your card and RADAR Key super helpful! ✨

@Disability_ID have just ordered my first card and I feel like it will help so much. It’s such a shame anyone can buy radar keys on amazon etc these days as people who don’t need them use them just to avoid queues, I like that your key says authorised radar key holder though x
