    What do YOU do? (Employment)

    Lizzie Eastham and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look through a different lens.  On this week’s show  “What do YOU do?”  This sounds like an innocuous question, often asked at social gatherings and parties - but it can be a sore-point if you have a disability.   Four of our friends talk about their experiences finding work; keeping it; and, in one case, going in their own direction.    Studio 1 welcomes any input from our listeners. If you have any experience or thoughts about issues covered in this episode or believe there is something we should be talking about.    You may also be interested in joining our choir of angels and telling your story.  EMAIL: studio1@visionaustralia.org or leave comment on the station’s Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/VARadioNetwork  A special thank you to Anthony, Emma; Simon and Julie.  This program was made possible with support from the Community Broadcasting Foundation.
