United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority Guidance 

CAP 1411 - CAA guidance for airports on providing assistance to people with hidden disabilities  8 December 2016
Guidance for UK airports on how to comply with obligations under Regulation EC1107/2006 (concerning the rights of disabled persons and persons with reduced mobility) in relation to providing assistance to people with hidden disabilities.

Hidden disabilities include, but are not limited to, dementia, autism, learning disabilities, anxiety issues, mental health impairments and hearing loss.

CAP 1629 – CAA report on hidden disabilities 11 June 2018  
This report summarises the progress made by UK airports in meeting the requirements and recommendations set out in CAP1411 - CAA Guidance for airports on providing assistance to people with hidden disabilities. It also lists the key assistance services available for people with hidden disabilities at airports.

CAP1228 - Guidance on quality standards under Regulation EC 1107/2006 2014 / March 2019
1. The aim of Regulation EC1107/20061 concerning the rights of disabled persons and persons with reduced mobility when travelling by air (“the Regulation”) is to ensure that such people have the same opportunities for air travel as those of others, in particular that they have the same rights to free movement, freedom of choice and non-discrimination…
​

5. This document refers to Regulation EC1107/2006 throughout. In preparation for the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union, the Government is in the process of ensuring the full body of European law is incorporated into the UK’s legal system. There will therefore be no change to the obligations of airports and the CAA with respect to disabled persons and persons with reduced mobility after the UK leaves the EU.
