Reach
The biggest barrier between a teenager and his or her goals is a lack of self believe and support. At Reach, specially trained crew of inspirational young leaders run workshops, weekends away and large scale events that help young people to connect with each other.
By creating an encouraging, supporting and stimulating environment, teenagers discover for themselves that they can do anything they set their minds to. It’s this personal discovery that makes the best teacher. Independent research shows Reach help young people improve self-esteem and gain a greater sense of control over their lives.

How has Henley helped?
In January 2007, Reach and The Henley Property Group developed a partnership focused on development of a residential property in Brighton. The property included a brand new, four bedroom luxury home at 7 Collins Street, Brighton. The home was been built by Henley and was auctioned by Hocking Stuart in October.
The auction was a huge success with the home selling for $2.92 Million dollars, with the net proceeds going straight to the Reach Foundation.
The second auction held on Saturday December 13th 2008 proved to not only test the current market conditions but also brought out some very keen people considering the day was blessed with wet, cold and windy conditions.
The successful bidder secured the beautiful Brighton property for $1.85 million and will move into the 4 bedroom luxury house with his family in February 2009.
It has been a pleasure to have once again worked with the amazing team at Reach who continues to give so much back to the youth community of Australia. Many thanks to Hocking Stuart who have again donated their time and services leading up to the auction, and on auction day.

Indeed a Good Friday for The Royal Children's Hospital with Villawood Properties and Henley Homes raising a whopping $635,000 for their Good Friday Charity Home Auction today.
Fierce bidding saw a flurry of hands raised in order to secure the Charity Auction Home at the Alamanda estate all as part of the Good Friday Appeal 2010.
A long standing fundraising project for the Good Friday Appeal, with the fantastic result bringing the grand total of funds raised over the past 17 years, to $9,574,840.75 – all of which goes to The Royal Children's Hospital.
The house, a part of our brand new Kube luxury collection of homes, included numerous luxury inclusions and attracted some keen bidding on the day. This year saw Henley building and auctioning its 25th Home and Land package for the Good Friday Appeal. The Directors of Henley have now been supporting the Appeal for 17 years, a truly amazing feat and something the company is proud to be apart of.
Once again many thanks are in order here... firstly to all of the trades who donate much of their time, many of these guys are small business owners who really are giving up their wages to assist the cause and its these guys who are the real heroes. A big thanks to our many suppliers who have donated, as you can see, some big ticket items this year making the house a true stand out from many on the market today. To Villawood who have donated the block, to the Henley Construction, Design and production team who really worked wonders to have this house completed. Stay tuned for next year.
