‘What we’re Wheelie like…’ is a book aimed at junior primary level, with the aim that both the children and the adults who read the book to them, will start to realise that people in wheelchairs like to wear nice clothes, go to parties and have fun, just like you and me. They’re regular people and they use a wheelchair.

The book is a result of interviews conducted between Gail Miller and people who use wheelchairs over the past year.

You are invited to the launch of the book on Sunday 20th November at 42 Scotland Road, Mile End. For more details have a look at the flyer.

Laura McGee, a woman with Cerebral Palsy, has written her autobiography entitled Wheels in Motion. The book will be released on Monday 24th May. More information can be found here.

Dangerously Nude by Georgia WoMoon Turner is a contemporary and exploratory spotlight of the inner workings of an intelligent schizophrenic mind. There are short stories, witty poems , and essays as well as social commentary.

If you have a family member, a friend with a diagnoses, are a doctor or work in the field, you will find this work fascinating.

More information can be found in this flyer.
