Today marks 80 years since VE Day<\/strong> and the end of World War II in Europe. A day for street parties and flag waving, yes, but also for remembrance. For stories that rarely make it into school textbooks. For a moment of quiet, grateful reflection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Purpl, we want to shine a light on the disabled and neurodivergent people<\/strong> who served, survived, and shaped the world that came after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because while the war ended, for many, the battles continued long after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The Legacy of Disability and War<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

More than 300,000 British servicemen and women<\/strong> came home from WWII with physical and psychological injuries. Many lost limbs, sight, or hearing. Others lived with shell shock – what we\u2019d now recognise as PTSD. War made disability part of everyday life<\/strong>, and yet, most were left without the support they needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But they weren\u2019t forgotten. Communities rallied. New charities formed. Veterans helped each other adapt, rebuild, and live full lives against the odds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blind Veterans UK<\/strong> (then St Dunstan\u2019s) supported over 1,500 blinded servicemen during WWII alone. They taught braille, woodworking, and how to navigate a sighted world in new ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Royal British Legion\u2019s Taxi School<\/strong> helped wheelchair users and amputees become licensed black cab drivers, offering both employment and dignity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Hidden Figures: Neurodivergent Minds Who Helped Win the War<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While the language didn\u2019t exist at the time, many of WWII\u2019s greatest minds would now be recognised as neurodivergent<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take Alan Turing<\/strong> – the mathematical genius who cracked the Nazi Enigma code. He was logical, socially withdrawn, often misunderstood – traits now widely associated with autism. Turing shortened the war by years and saved millions of lives. He died uncelebrated, persecuted for being gay. We remember him now with pride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or Louis Braille<\/strong>, whose writing system – though developed long before WWII – was a lifeline to thousands of blind soldiers after the war. His invention helped entire generations regain independence, education, and connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Books That Bear Witness<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you want to understand this chapter of history better, here are a few powerful reads:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • \u201cCrippled: Austerity and the Demonisation of Disabled People\u201d<\/strong> by Frances Ryan \u2013 A sharp look at the treatment of disabled people post-war.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • \u201cThe Broken Years: Australian Soldiers in the Great War\u201d<\/strong> by Bill Gammage \u2013 A raw account of returning soldiers living with both visible and invisible wounds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • \u201cThe Disability History Handbook\u201d<\/strong> by Anne Borsay & Pamela Dale \u2013 A brilliant overview of disability through key historical periods, including WWII.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    \n\n\n\n

    Then and Now: Numbers That Matter<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Back in 1945, many disabled veterans weren\u2019t even recorded as such. It\u2019s only in recent decades that the Ministry of Defence began tracking data around disability and neurodivergence in the Armed Forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Today, over 3,700 serving members<\/strong> of the UK military are recorded as neurodivergent<\/strong> – with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and dyspraxia among the most common. Modern forces are slowly learning what our community has long known: disabled doesn\u2019t mean unable<\/strong>. Different doesn\u2019t mean broken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n\n\n

    Today and Always – We Remember<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    VE Day is for the flags, the music, the dancing in the streets.
    But it\u2019s also for the quiet courage.
    The amputees who learned to walk again.
    The men who couldn\u2019t speak of what they\u2019d seen.
    The women who took over factories, lost husbands, and kept going.
    The veterans who came home changed forever – and changed the world anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    At Purpl<\/strong>, we\u2019re here because they were.
    Their fight paved the way for disability rights, mental health awareness, and the slow march toward inclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    So today, we pause.
    We remember.
    We say thank you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To all disabled and neurodivergent veterans, past and present:
    We see you. We honour you. And we celebrate your legacy.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
