In The Pursuit of Saving Lives
Reach Wellness is a registered Non-for-Profit Organisation focusing on delivering solutions dedicated to the prevention, treatment, and ongoing support of mental health as well as physical health for first responders such as but not limited to services such as Ambulance, ERP, Fire, Flying Doctors, Military Personnel and Police.
Reaching Out to Help First Responders
Our vision is to provide an affordable, effective, and inclusive mental health support solution with programs and activities that enable first responders to receive the care and support they need to live healthy, fulfilling, purpose-driven lives for them and their families.
We envision a world where first responders are offered solutions that can engage them over all aspects of wellness, being mental, physical, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, environmental, social, and occupational. Protecting First Responders from suicide, free from stigma, and empower them to be their best selves and connect with and support others facing similar life challenges.
Promote purpose-led thinking and behaviour that is supported by the tools, professional help and community to become their best self and build up the fortitude to perform against the daily, monthly, and yearly challenges that face our first responders.
The Mission of Reach Wellness is to deliver for first responders and front-line workers that serve our community, providing them with the best mental health and physical health solutions that are available anywhere in the world today. We are laser-focused not only on preventing suicides but also on enriching the mentality of first responders and their families. By providing our full wellness solutions that are accessible to all first responders, Reach Wellness will make a tangible difference in the lives of those who choose to serve us.

Reach Wellness Micro Communities Programs aims to promote mental well-being by pushing boundaries, increasing resilience, and reducing loneliness.
We've created the Live Your Purpose Project, a framework designed to promote the prevention and control of mental health diseases for first responders. This framework is based on the japanese philosophy for life, Ikigai and has a variety of positive effects:
The "Reach Over Resistance" project has a four-pillar framework to aid first responders in preventing and managing mental health issues:
1. Prepare: Equipping first responders with stress management techniques, self-care strategies, and tools to cope with trauma in their work, enabling early recognition of potential mental health concerns and prompt help-seeking.
2. Prevent: Providing actionable training for trauma management, promoting a healthy lifestyle, and creating a supportive work environment where discussing mental health is encouraged.
3. Treat: Offering fast access to a team of professionals who understand first responders' challenges, ensuring timely and effective care for those facing mental health issues.
4. Fortify: Establishing ongoing support through a network of coaches, nurses, and experienced individuals, strengthening the mental resilience of first responders to handle future challenges.

About the Retreat
On the Reach Retreat, there will be 120 new chalets with one, two and three bedrooms options on 88 acres to cater for the growing number of First Responders who need to get away to a place to recharge and have a break, either on their o w n or with their family.
The Retreat is designed to support up to 13,000 First Responders and family members annually. We intend to have psychologists and trauma support groups available as well as medical support via the newly revamped hospital in the town.
The Retreat already has an organic farm, and a well-established orchard, fruit trees and vineyard as well as livestock. The property currently has 4 large homes and a granny flat that we intend to use immediately once all approvals are in place.
The first responders will also be able to do work and leisure activities on the property, such as gardening in the hot houses and the orchard, learning to cook with chefs, exercising and relaxing.
Retreat Services
Services that will be accommodated on the retreat are:
• Psychotherapy Services: provide access to licensed therapists or counselors who can offer individual or group therapy sessions to address mental health concerns.
• Meditation and Mindfulness: mindfulnessand meditation practices can help reduce stress, improve focus, and promote overall mental well-being.
• Job-Specific Trauma and Counselling services: Creating a safe environmental soundboard option for people to get support from lived experience support networks.

CLR MIND is our digital platform to deliver the Reach Projects, we are dedicated to supporting our first responders' mental health needs in five powerful ways:
CLR Health is also there to deliver value and better health to first responders, it helps to address the challenges of being a first responder by providing a portable medical device (CLR Med Hub), a cloud-based electronic health integration system (CLR UI System), and a mobile app.
