THE UNOFFICIAL LONDON (CANADA) WHEELCHAIR HOCKEY PAGE - JEFF PRESTON'S FACEBOOK PAGE 1915 views UK
Hi, I'm Jeff Preston. The reason that I am in a wheelchair is because I have Congenital Muscular Dystrophy. Anyway, hockey is like life for me. During the summer I practice for the coming season and whenever I am not playing hockey in London, then I am either playing road hockey or hockey on my computer! As you can see, I'm a hockey fanatic!?

LONELY PLANET ACCESSIBLE TRAVEL PHRASEBOOK website All travellers will get more out of their trip by being able to speak a few words of the local language, but for people with a disability it’s often vital to be able to explain your particular needs. Since standard phrasebooks are unlikely to contain the language you need to talk about needs around disability we’ve gathered together some disability-specific words and phrases and translated them into as many different languages as we practically could. Although things are slowly changing for the better, there are still plenty of barriers to travel for people with a disability – language doesn’t have to be yet another. - click the image to visit this site -

JAIMEN HUDSON - 'THE VIEW IS BETTER FROM UP HERE!' website I have always been passionate about the outdoors, as a youth my days were filled with activities like riding dirt bikes, skateboarding, surfing and scuba diving. Learning to dive at age 10 only added to my love of the ocean. In 2008 I had an accident that left me a quadriplegic and in 2014 I became interested in drone photography and videography, although I wasn't sure I would be able to use the remote controller due to my reduced hand function. Since then though I've been lucky to have my work featured in many prominent media outlets and publications and have also won the Western Australia 'Young Achiever Award' in 2018. I hope you enjoy what you see...! - click the image to visit this site -
