20 Feb 07, 12:15 PM - Disability day on Radio 4
Well now, Radio 4 really has come up trumps today when it comes to programmes of interest to disabled people. In fact, you'd swear that Tuesday 20 February was disability day or something.
At 9.00am we had No Triumph No Tragedy with Peter White. He spoke to Ouch's very own Emma Bowler about her decision to have children as a person with a genetic disability. You can listen here for the next seven days, and the programme is repeated again at 9.30pm tonight. Don't forget, that you can also hear Peter White tonight at 8.40pm on In Touch, the programme of particular interest to blind and visually impaired people.
Then, at 9.30am, Graham Easton discusses problems with balance in Extra Senses, also available to listen to for the next seven days. We will post the link when available.
Finally, Radio 4's Book of the Week is Born on a Blue Day, by Daniel Tammet, who has Savant Syndrome, a rare form of Asperger's.
