What Lifestyle Solutions does

Lifestyle Solutions (Aust) Ltd is an Australian registered NDIS provider and foster care organization headquartered at 33 Fern Street, Islington NSW. Founded in 2002, the company delivers a comprehensive portfolio of disability support services to people with disability, children and young people in out-of-home care, and their families and carers. The company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Possability Group Ltd (ACN 638 044 327) and operates with 1,001-5,000 employees on a national basis.

The service portfolio is organized into several pillars: accommodation (Supported Independent Living, Short-term Accommodation/Respite), everyday living supports (Independent Living Skills, Practical Supports, Tenancy Supports, Intensive Supports), community participation (Community, Social and Recreational Supports, Holiday Supports, Worker Recruitment Support), growth and development programs (Transition to Work, Australian Disability Enterprise via Bindi Enterprises), NDIS Support Coordination and Plan Management, and Foster Care Services. This breadth allows the company to serve participants across a wide spectrum of needs, from high-intensity accommodation to community engagement and employment pathways.

Revenue is generated primarily through NDIS plan funding allocations, a government-backed recurring model in which each participant's individualized plan funds the supports they receive. The company employs support workers, therapeutic youth workers, and foster carers directly and delivers services through accommodation sites, community settings, and participant homes. Lifestyle Solutions markets through a content-rich website, organic social media (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn), and a centralized national contact center. The company is led by CEO Drew Beswick, and no technology products, AI/ML capabilities, or external funding rounds are disclosed.
