International Day of Persons with Disabilities is an annual celebration of people with disabilities, and this year marks 28 years since its launch by the United Nations.

This year’s theme is ‘Not all Disabilities are Visible’, to spread awareness around hidden disabilities, such as Mental Health. 

This year has brought about more awareness around Mental Health, in light of Covid-19 and the impact it has had on people’s Mental Health.
