The Story of Carelabs

The Visionaries and the Inspiration

Max and Leeuwin grew up in the midst of challenges, surrounded by family and friends with disabilities. They witnessed the disheartening exclusion faced by many and the hesitance of existing organisations to embrace change. But where others saw barriers, they saw opportunity. Driven by their own experiences and a shared passion, these three visionaries embarked on a bold journey. They were determined to rewrite the narrative, believing in the transformative power of experiences and friendships. Their mission? To create a fair and vibrant platform that would open doors to exciting opportunities and meaningful connections, both locally and internationally. And so, the seeds of change were sown.

A Dream Takes Flight:
The Birth of Carelabs

The creation of Carelabs was more than the ambition of Max and Leeuwin; it was a symphony of collective passion and determination, orchestrated by those eager to make a profound impact in their community. The spark was ignited with a daring pilot run by Leeuwin and a team of independent support workers in Perth, in the challenging landscape of 2022. That initial venture resonated like a triumphant overture, uncovering the vast potential for change and setting the stage for a grand movement that would reshape the lives of people with disabilities.

Today, Carelabs stands as a symbol of hope, continually breaking barriers and redefining community involvement. Through the dedication of its founders and team, Carelabs has created a lasting legacy of experiences and connections that shape lives in extraordinary ways.
