Despite ongoing efforts to make emoji more diverse with different skin tones and same sex couples, there's still just one to represent disability – a wheelchair-user sign, often used to denote accessible toilets.
So ahead of World Emoji Day on Sunday, we've released 18 of our own emojis representing disability!
What do you think? Have we missed any? Tell us and we might create a few new ones featuring your ideas. https://blog.scope.org.uk/2016/07/15/one-disability-emoji-isnt-enough-so-weve-made-18-for-world-emoji-day/

YesFabulous! I'd love to see one with splints or perhaps a spinal brace. I wear splints and used to have a spinal brace and think they'd be really good in emoji form! Love them
