Doing Life On Wheels

Doing Life On Wheels is a podcast about daily life and the ups and downs of being on wheels from the perspective of two wheelchair users that just happen to be life long friends. Join us every fortnight as we tackle a new topic in, what is hopefully, a fun and sometimes quirky conversation. WARNING! We will veer off topic often. We’ll always find our way back hopefully.
