What is Having a Disability about?

Having a Disability helps young children understand what disability can mean and how it may affect everyday life. Through simple explanations, relatable examples and inviting illustrations, it explores questions about mobility, communication, feelings, friendships and inclusion. Children are encouraged to talk openly, listen respectfully and recognise the different ways people live, learn and take part in the world. A reassuring guide for sharing thoughts, asking questions and developing empathy towards themselves and others.
