Access Industries Access Industries provides employment and traning opportunities for people with disability

Access Industries has been providing services for people with disabilities for 70 years. In fact, we are one of the oldest organisations of our type in Australia. Access Industries for the Disabled Limited was not always the name of our Company. The organisation was originally set up by a group of people with physical disabilities as the Civilian Maimed and Limbless Association (CMLA) back in 1949. As the name suggests, the organisation was established as a self-help group for people within the community whose disabilities were not due to war service. Then, as now, the intention was to be an organisation that was controlled by people with disabilities, for people with disabilities. One of the earliest aims of the organisation was to help people with disabilities to gain meaningful work and develop their work skills, with a view to increasing their personal and financial independence and enabling them to take their rightful place as productive and valued members of Australian society. Initially, this was done by undertaking sub-contract work in a variety of factory-based locations. With the subsequent growth in our employment services our organisation began to provide assistance to people with a wider range of disabilities, and also became more commercially-oriented in order to provide a greater range of employment opportunities to suit their differing needs. In 1980 we changed our name to Access Industries for the Disabled Ltd. Access Industries now has operational divisions: Business Services in Seven Hills, Horsley Park, Erskine Park, Newcastle and Lithgow, (providing supported employment for around 250 people with disabilities);

We also have our Fundraising; Activities where we run a Art Union draw to win fabulous prizes.

Unwrapping the Gift of Choice this Christmas🎄

The impact of the right support is simple yet profound: new skills are learned, personal income is earned, and futures are chosen. That is the definition of independence, and it’s a gift that changes everything.

Your donation to the Access Industries Christmas Appeal helps a person with disability write the next, most exciting chapter in their life story.🎁

🎁 The Gift of Independence

With the right support, individuals are doing more than just working—they are mastering new skills, earning their own income, and making meaningful choices to shape their futures.

That is true independence, and that is a gift you simply cannot wrap.

This Christmas, we invite you to give a gift far greater than anything that can fit under the tree.

Your donation to the Access Industries Christmas Appeal helps a person with disability write the next, most exciting chapter in their life story.

🐎Chip, Dip, and Race Day Thrills: Melbourne Cup at Access Industries🏆

The office turned into a mini Flemington as the team at Access Industries Erskine Park paused for the 'Race That Stops a Nation'!

Everyone gathered together to watch the Melbourne Cup live, enjoying the thrills and excitement as the horses thundered down the track. It was a great opportunity for a mid-week break and some team bonding.

Fueling the excitement was a spread of classic, crowd-pleasing snacks—from delicious chips and lollies to other small treats.

A big thank you to everyone who took part and helped make our Cup Day celebration a sweet success! 🎉
