Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 30 March 2021 to Question 173145, on Railways: Disability, whether he plans to make lanyards and badges available at train stations.

The Government is committed to ensuring that disabled people have the same access to transport services and opportunities to travel as other members of society and supports the Sunflower Lanyard and Card scheme. Every train operator across England, Scotland and Wales has signed up to the Sunflower scheme. The lanyards and cards can be obtained and collected from participating ticket offices at stations, as well as other locations such as supermarkets. Following the rail industry announcement last year recognising the scheme across the rail network, it will be included in any disability related communications over the summer.
