  11. Thank you all for your answers. I hope you haven't found it too hard to look for the information in the website. I can tell you that working with disabled people was a very, very rewarding experience that will stay with me forever.

    Next you will have to write a formal letter applying for a position as a volunteer in the "Leonard Cheshire Disability" organization, so I hope you have read the "voluteering" section carefully...

    Thank you for your comments, and don't fail to visit the blog periodically to enjoy the contents in it. Also remember that you can publish your own posts, proposing your own topics, dealing about the things you are interested in. The more people that take part in the blog, the richer it will be.

    Bye, and "stay tuned".

    José Ángel
