| Overview: |
The majority of our clients are referred to us by
professional occupational therapists and physiotherapists, most of whom
are employed by Government institutions; they visit special schools, or
otherwise advise people with disabilities in the course of their
duties. The Branch has been active for over 25 years.
Clients are asked for the cost of materials used, and some travel costs
might apply.
