In the spirit of disability month (which ends on Saturday), the Centenary House in Polokwane challenges several organisations and their employees to spend some time a wheelchair in order to experience life as someone with a disability.
Two of our journalists, Vella Nyoni and Raeesa Kimmie took on the challenge and spent close to four hours in wheelchairs. They had to complete specific tasks and go about their daily routine while seated in their wheelchairs.
Our journalists said they felt a new-found respect for people with disabilities because they deal with much more than people realise.
