The Sunflower Programme – Making Invisible Disabilities Visible

At Helsingør Municipality Libraries, everyone is welcome. We are committed to providing a friendly, accessible and inclusive experience for all visitors, whether their disabilities are visible or non-visible.

For some people, including those living with conditions such as acquired brain injury, ADHD, anxiety, visual impairment, PTSD, autism, dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, visiting the library may require a little extra time, support or understanding.

That is why we are part of the Sunflower Programme. Our staff are trained to recognise the Sunflower symbol and to offer support, patience and assistance when needed.

If you do not already have a Sunflower lanyard, you can collect one free of charge from The Culture Yard, Espergærde Library or Hornbæk Library during staffed opening hours.

There is no need to explain your condition. Simply ask for a lanyard, and we will be happy to provide one — no questions asked.
