2010 Australian Institute of Project Management Awards Winner under the ACT Not for Profit Category

Technical Aid to the Disabled ACT (TADACT) was awarded and ACT Not-For-Profit Organisation award for the design and construction of our Kinetic Walker. The Kinetic Walker was designed by a physiotherapist to teach children with curable palsy to balance and also to prevent hip dislocation. The Stander can be used whilst the child learns, eats and plays. This has changed their lives as the child can now take part in activities and engage with other children.
