'Have a physical disability, between 18- 64, why not earn
yourself $10 for 30 minutes work?'
It’s easy money really, as all you have to do is go
to www.impactofimpairment.com
and take part in a survey.
The survey aims to find out the impact of impairment on your
life. In other words, what does it really take, (and costs),
for a person with an impairment to live an ordinary life in
the community. Does it take a home that meets YOUR needs?
A transport system that takes YOU where YOU want to go when
YOU want it? An increase in supportive attitudes or do you
have another vision?
I had a go at completing the survey myself and found it most
absorbing, as it made me think about what is working well
in my life and what improvements could be made to make my
life easier. Do you have enough energy for everyday life?
It’s an important question to ask any person with cerebral
palsy In the standard of living section the survey asks ‘do
you put off buying clothes for as long as possible’
or ‘do you postpone or put off visits to the doctor
to help keep down costs?’
The survey also asks what items or services would be useful
to help out with such things as meal preparation, light or
heavy housework, shopping and personal care.
To learn so much about yourself and be awarded with a $10
MTA upon completion is a very worthwhile exercise in my book.
Why not give it a go!!! ....... by clicking
