Ern and Les Rothschild Volunteering Award
Background Ern Rothschild was a Solve-TAD technical member from 1990 until he passed away in 2007. He and his wife Les were great supporters of the work of Solve-TAD. They both attended VIC Annual General Meetings and functions and took every opportunity to promote the work of Solve-TAD. Ern worked on over 110 projects in his 17 years with Solve-TAD, with products made ranging from items to make personal care easier, to equipment to enable greater participation in vocational and recreational activities.
