A remarkable partnership between the Day Family Foundation, Beluga Foundation, Spicer Cottages Trust and CMV Group Foundation is helping TADSA expand innovative assistive technology solutions that empower people with disability and older South Australians to live more independently. This landmark three-year collaboration will strengthen organisational capacity, support regional expansion and help ensure more South Australians living with disability can access customised assistive technology solutions. Together, we are building a stronger and more sustainable future for TADSA and the communities we serve.

Whether it's a custom mobility solution, an adapted household device or a unique piece of assistive technology, every project has the potential to improve someone's independence and daily life.

If you enjoy solving practical problems and want to apply your skills in a meaningful way, we'd love to hear from you. https://tadsa.org.au/volunteer-with-us/

Chatty Cafe Community Meeting - bringing people together over a cuppa and conversation.

TADSA Deputy Chair, Mike Stevens, and CEO, Tracey Watters, were delighted to join The Grand Lodge of Freemasons SA & NT grant recipients, including OC Challenge, HeartKids, Clown Doctors Australia, Nolton Park: Horses Healing Hearts and OneSight, for a combined cheque presentation and networking morning tea on 30 September.

Each year, the Freemasons Foundation supports charitable organisations delivering meaningful impact across a diverse range of causes, providing significant funding to strengthen communities throughout South Australia and the Northern Territory.

TADSA is grateful to the Earl of Zetland Lodge for sponsoring our application and for the opportunity to share the work of our dedicated volunteers. Presenting to lodge members highlighted the life-changing impact of customised assistive technology in enabling dignity, inclusion, independence and improved quality of life for people of all ages living with disability and ageing-related challenges.

We are sincerely thankful to the Freemasons Foundation for its generous contribution of $45,000, which will enable TADSA to purchase and brand a purpose-built trailer for our Freedom Wheels program. This investment will improve the safety, efficiency and reach of inclusive cycling assessments and events, helping more South Australians experience the freedom, confidence and joy that cycling can provide.

Thank you to the Freemasons Foundation and the Earl of Zetland Lodge for helping create greater opportunities for inclusion, participation and independence across our community.

💙 Sometimes, a small change can make a big difference in everyday life.

For Edward, eye-gaze technology is an important way to access and use his computer. But his existing setup was limiting how much of the screen he could use, while an unstable stand was creating an additional safety concern.

🛠️ That’s where TADSA volunteer Glen stepped in. Glen designed and built a custom adjustable frame to support Edward’s eye-gaze camera, while also stabilising the existing stand. The new setup can be adjusted to Edward’s needs and folded away when not in use.

✨ Now, Edward can access the full computer screen more easily, with greater independence, safety and participation.

💬 “We are so grateful for all the help you have provided. It has all made a real difference for the better to Edward’s life.”

Sometimes, it’s not about creating something complicated. It’s about creating the right solution for the person who needs it. 💙
