Work In Laos

Tales and photos from working in a wheelchair service in Laos. There are photos of clients in the following sections. Everyone was happy to have their photo taken, not sure if that actually means consent to put on the internet but there is no such concept here. I decided to use the photos so people who are interested can see some of the issues that disabled people face here and also appreciate the scope of some of the disability here - much of which is preventable.
