The WAIT is over!
ILC NSW has revised this popular guide, 2015 edition is available for purchase.
Bathrooms and kitchens require special attention in the planning phase. Once they are built, they are expensive to alter or modify. This Guide provides advice on planning bathrooms and kitchens for people with specific needs.
The 2015 edition presents an update reviewing circulation and access requirements taking into consideration new sizes of wheelchairs, walkers and other mobility aids. The revised edition also:
- includes additional information based on carers needs to facilitate access to and within the bathroom;
- provides a general overview of the latest innovative assistive technology available for home modifications and retrofits.

29 March 2023 - 31 July 2023
We are sad to announce that all registrations to our Training cources are closed.
Due to the lack of Federal and NSW State government funding support, we have fallen through the gap. AT-Aust will be closing its doors on April 14th 2023.
Should a miracle happen that we receive funding for our core business of information provisions, we might be able to re-consider our Training programs.
We understand that this may be inconvenient for you all, but it is now unavoidable. You lose your Home Mods and impartial AT training provider, you and your clients lose a valuable AT information service.
If you have any questions please email us training@at-aust.org
For more info or you might want to support us.
Thank you.
