The journey of a visually impaired student becoming an occupational therapist - 568-570

This opinion piece outlines the personal reflections of a visually impaired student's experience throughout her studies, both at university and on placement. Its purpose is to raise awareness of students with disabilities in 2003, the European Year of Disabled People. By highlighting relevant literature and drawing on personal experience, some recommendations are made for the future. Government policy in the United Kingdom aims to remove the barriers to education and to subsequent employment for those with disabilities. This may not always be the case, as highlighted by this narrative = The British Journal of Occupational Therapy
