On this weeks program, Chris catches up with Cubby aka CB Mako about their families journey through the last few difficult years with long covid, related health issues, disabilities, changes to NDIS funding, calling for the bicycle industry to address mobility issues with three-wheel e-bikes and crowdfunding the families transport needs for a Nihola Rehab ecargobike for their daughter Christa.
Photo description - Christa (seated inside the cargobike) and her Sr Occupational Therapist standing beside the cargobike and peeking inside to checking on Christa. The OT wanted to test and measure various cargobikes at Dutch Cargo Bike headquarters in Moorabbin, VIC. Christa liked the Nihola e-cargobike very much.
Local news includes Building a safe and liveable Coppin Street and last weeks Yarra Council meeting that has broad implications for local active transport, peoples trust in local politics and council governance issues.
Tuesday 3rd December is International Day for People with Disabilities and 3CR has 12 hours of programming with Embodied Solidarities, starting at 7am.
