Disability Awareness Sunday
Theme: 'Made in God's image'
Join churches across the UK – and beyond – as we celebrate Disability Awareness Sunday on 28th September 2025 (or any Sunday that suits your church!). This year’s theme reminds us that every person, disabled or not, reflects the image of God. If you would like to join us in prayer for Disability Awareness Sunday, visit our 24/7 Prayer page.
The most important thing about Disability Awareness Sunday is that Christians reach out and include disabled people fully in community life. Catch the vision today! Get free resources to help celebrate - register below.
The heart of the matter
Jesus welcomed everyone. Let’s follow His example and open our doors – and hearts – wider. The 2025 Disability Awareness Sunday resource explores 1 Samuel 16:7 ‘God looks at the heart’, and being ‘Made in God’s Image’.
Let’s build communities where everyone belongs! We can help with free resources for Disability Awareness Sunday (DAS). This year's resource was written by award-winning Christian author Emily Owen who lost her hearing overnight aged 21. Hear from Emily herself in the short video in the resource, to play in your church.
Complete the form below to get the resource, and experience Emily Owen's powerful story of faith and disability.
