YOUR ADVENTURE. THEIR FUTURE

As one of Australia's leading residential builders, the strength of our business lies in our understanding and care towards the importance of family. We do this by providing beautiful family homes that foster a sense of pride and security. We also believe that our corporate influence and positive impact on communities do not need to stop there...

LifeChanger is a preventative mental health and well-being non-profit that empowers young people to live thriving, resilient lives. LifeChanger believes that many of the confronting challenges and alarming statistics that face today's youth are preventable through pre-emptive, early intervention programs that build self-esteem, self-awareness, positive self-identity and resilience.

To support LifeChanger programs, a diverse group of 12 Carlisle Homes team members will set off on the adventure of a lifetime - no luxuries, no titles, no excuses! Participants prepare for a physical, spiritual, and emotional journey of self-discovery in one of Australia's most spectacular locations; a 4 day hike around the beautiful, yet challenging, Maria Island, Tasmania.

This is an incredible opportunity for these individuals to discover their strengths - individually and collectively - while learning about the importance of self-care, teamwork, leadership, and connection.

Carlisle Homes are up for the Challenge!
