The New South Wales Society for Crippled Children was a charitable organisation that was founded by Rotary in 1929 to support children who suffered polio and tuberculosis. It ran the Margaret Reid Home and the Beverley Park Estate, as well as special schools and other residential facilities. The author May Gibbs gave a large part of her estate to this society. In 1995 the Society changed its name to Northcott Disability Services, which has been known simply as Northcott since 2012.
