During the month of May Australia celebrates volunteer week, 21- 27 May. We speak Keith Rutherford, who volunteers at Vision Australia's Wollongong office assisting people with phone and computer applications, and client Aileen Muscat who attends the computer classes. Aileen believes that Keith's lived experience of low vision makes him the perfect tutor to teach other people who are blind or have low vision. She credits his work on enabling her to fully access all that technology has to offer. Also on the program, we hear from Jane Britt and a new recreational program opening up in Brisbane specifically for people with disabilities. And Frances Keyland is on the show with a reader recommended.
World Footprints will take you inside “The Greatest Outdoor Show On Earth”—the Calgary Stampede. Cowboy up and hitch your horse to a chuck wagon as the Stampede’s Keith Rutherford shares the heritage of one of the signature events, the chuck wagon race. Then meet the young Canadians who charm their way into the hearts of all during the Stampede evening extravaganzas. They will share what it takes to be a member of this Broadway style glee club. Finally, World Footprints will visit the Siksika Nation, east of Calgary on the Blackfoot Reservation. Tribal elder, Bernard Bear Shirt, will share the history of the Tribe through stories and members of his family will continue the tradition of music and dance.
