3tfm Community Radio for Health [Disability, Disability Information] - The idea of a Careers Show on Community Radio was conceived during April 2006 when a local steering group. Chaired by Jim McHarg of Community Learning & Development set up a radio station called GVFM (Garnock Valley FM).

The initial concept I had was a show to highlight various careers interspersed with music and local information and the four week run of the show proved very successful. GVFM was later granted a further four week license and from there the show grew from strength to strength.

The site is set on sloping ground, with steep slopes in places. Access around the site is on rural surfaces, mainly rolled or loose chippings, in keeping with the nature of the site and buildings.

Cardiac Risk In The Young [Medical Condition, Heart Disease - UK] - CRY was founded in 1995 by Alison Cox. For four years, the head office was based in a private home but as the charity grew, so did its need for more staff, presentation materials, printing equipment and storage facilities.

Being based in a private home meant that CRY escaped the majority of costs normally associated with the running of an office. However thanks to the incredible efforts of our fund raisers the charity was finally able to afford the move into a warehouse unit on a small industrial estate. Progress!

Kako bi se na životu održali mnogi bolesnici oboljeli od neizljeèivih bolesti, danas se u svijetu provode uspješna presaðivanja bubrega, jetre, srca, koštane srži i drugih organa i tkiva. Najveci broj presaðivanja provodi se zbog kroniènog zatajenja bubrežne funkcije. U Evropi i SAD provodi se godišnje na desetine tisuæa presaðivanja i to uglavnom s umrlih osoba. Usprkos tome broj organa premalen je za zadovoljenje potreba.
The first public presentation of the Card was on the "Second Croatian conference about substitution therapy of renal insufficiency and transplant medicine" in November 1996.
In order to maintain in life many people suffering from incurable diseases, the modern medicine everywhere in the world practises successful transplantations of kidneys, liver, heart, pancreas, bone marrow, and other tissues. The largest number of transplants is done due to chronic renal insufficiency. There are dozens of thousands transplantations in the USA and in Europe each year, mostly of deceased persons. In spite of that the number of available organs is still too small to satisfy the needs.

Greece - Asthma School [Medical Condition, Asthma Information - International] - From my experience derived by handling asthmatic patients for many years I came to the conclusion that there is no use to subscribe the most expensive medications or to perform the most detailed laboratory investigation while the patient goes to bed and sleep every night along with the house dust mites that have infested his/her mattress and pillow ! Busy physicians perhaps do not have the time to educate their patients about the allergens involved in their allergies, the mechanisms of their disease or the possible side-effects of the medications prescribed. It is my belief that only those who are well informed about their allergy will get the most from therapy and help administered by their Allergist. Therefore, this "Asthma School" will try to fill the gap and give allergic patients suffering from asthma a lot of information on issues relevant to their bronchial asthma. If you have any questions about asthma or allergies in general, please do not hesitate to e-mail me (see at the end of the page). In collaboration with your doctor we will find the most suitable solution for your case.
