Avonvale proudly supports the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Lanyard Scheme because we recognise that not all disabilities and health problems are visible.
There are many disabilities that can’t be seen such as autism, chronic pain, heart disease, hearing loss and mental illness.
If you’d like any extra help, support or time when you visit us with your pet, please let us know.
We have a box of sunflower lanyards and wristbands on our reception desks which you can choose to wear during your visit. By wearing a lanyard or wristband you’re indicating to us you’d like extra support.
Our staff members are fully aware of the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Lanyard scheme and will ask how we can support you during your visit to Avonvale.

If you choose not to wear a lanyard or wristband but would like extra support, please let any of our staff members know how we can help you.
