    • Report - Churchill Fellowship Study Tour
    Last Modified: 08-07-2008

    The purpose of my study tour was “To identify techniques to better manage the late effects of polio” in the USA and Canada.

    The inspiration for this project was born out of witnessing the courage and determination revealed to me on a daily basis by the ‘community’ of polio survivors I work with, who are now experiencing post polio syndrome (PPS).
