Our Logo
The Opportunity Circle, SPD’s symbol, is the visual manifestation of its mission of working in partnership with people with physical disabilities to develop their potential to the fullest so that they can be self-reliant and independent. Drawn in bold, free style, the open circle graphic ending in an upward pointing arrow represents the optimism, opportunity and dignity which result from self-reliance and independence, the focus of the Society’s efforts. The exuberance of the symbol is balanced by a stable, classic identity typeface, reflecting the professionalism of the Society.
Enhancing the modern and professional look of the new identity is a colour palette which combines a warm, pomegranate orange symbol with a bright, cheerful and fresh green name.
