Disabled Sport

Are there any physiotherapists out there working with elite athletes that have had an amputation or two?? If so which countries are you in? It would be great to get a list of global contacts together.

I am also interested in getting more involved with elite disabled athletes and especially classification. I'm an Australian physiotherapist but am heading to the UK for a few years. Any contacts would be appreciated.
