International Day of People with Disability 2025

The International Day of People with Disability IDPwD is a United Nations (UN) day observed internationally.

IDPwD is an opportunity to be part of creating an inclusive and diverse community for the 4.1% of Wyndham community that need assistance due to disability.

Come and listen to Miss Emilia who is a weaver of sound and story — with heart. Step into a queer, disabled life lovingly tangled in soft poetry, shimmering reflections, and gentle musings. Her music wraps listeners in blankets of soul, jazz, and folk — inviting you to feel seen, soothed, and whole.

Explore our mini-market featuring talented local creatives living with disabilities, in addition to those who create products aimed at increasing accessibility.
