Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Hi There
I was out in Les Gets Sat 30th March to April 6th. Whilst we were there there were a huge number of skiers with a variety of disabilities using many different methods of skiing. The skiers all had high viz vests on with a website on the back which for the life in me I cannot remember!
I would love to get in touch with this company. I'm currently doing an occupational therapy degree and am considering a research project looking at the benefits of adaptive skiing.
I would be grateful if anyone's memory is better than mine who remembers those skiers!!!
If anyone else with experience in this field (instructor, parent or skier) who would be willing to speak to me so I can learn more I would love to hear from you.
Many Thanks
Jo
