More information

 

Technical Aid to the Disabled started in June 1973 when George Winston AM and a core group of eight engineers volunteered their technical skills to assist people with disabilities. Over 300 volunteers in 18 branches, interest and metro groups are supported by 23 full and part time staff based at Northmead, Sydney. Similar organisations have also been established in the other states. Our custom built solutions and modified equipment help our clients, young and old, get more out of life. TADNSW can assist in all aspects of everyday living, including equipment to assist the development of young children, tools and devices for education, work, recreation, daily living and personal care, and aids to assist older people retain mobility and independence. In some cases we may also modify a commercially available item to suit individual needs. Even though many of our solutions appear relatively simple, they make a world of difference to our clients.
