Four in 10 adults with a hidden disability have been verbally abused as a direct result of their condition.
Researchers who polled 2,000 adults found 41 per cent have a disability with no physical signs – including learning difficulties, hearing or visual impairments or mental health conditions.
But a quarter of those with blue badges have been called out for parking in a disabled space because they don’t ‘look disabled.’
And 22 per cent have been asked to prove they are really disabled, while 42 per cent have felt judged due to their condition.
The research was commissioned by Heathrow Express which has joined the Hidden Disabilities sunflower scheme.
To show what life's like for those with these conditions the transfer service has created a video featuring the unique insights of three individuals with hidden disabilities.
