Team Liberator

Nigel has over 30 years’ involvement in the disability sector, including almost a decade spent building up Access Cabs, the wheelchair accessible taxi service, in Adelaide. During that time, he worked with, & got to know, many people with significant impairments. In 1999 Nigel undertook a postgraduate qualification in Disability Studies at Flinders University under Professor Roy Brown. This served to increase his personal awareness of the vital issues faced daily by Liberator's customers. Prior to founding Liberator in 2007, Nigel invested seven years in successfully managing the Assistive Technology business unit at Novita Children's Services Incorporated.

Nilendra is the latest addition to the Liberator Team at HQ in Adelaide. He is a talented & dexterous electronics technician who is developing his skill base rapidly. Nilendra is concentrating on building, supporting & repairing Liberator’s Number 1 product, the LR7. Liberator’s continuing expansion means we needed more staff to maintain premium levels of quality service. Nilendra is already proving to be a great asset.
