What is BlueAssist

BlueAssist is a symbol, set of tools and social ethos that believes everyone should have the right to be treated with dignity and respect when communicating.  BlueAssist started 11 years ago, with an original focus on supporting people with hidden disabilities. Over the last decade we realised that the tools and symbols supported more groups than just disabled people. 

There are many reasons why communication can become harder or stigmatised and BlueAssist supports people from a wide range of life including:

The BlueAssist ethos is that of dignity, support and understanding no matter who is speaking and who is listening. Our motto, Dare To Connect, promotes these ideals and the charity's actions work towards a more inclusive society through supporting members of the public and working with businesses, government and communities.
