Deakin Charity HouseProject

The Master Builders Association of the ACT (MBA) and the Land Development Agency (LDA) have partnered with Renaissance Homes to deliver a new Charity House Project for 2015-16.

The Boundless all abilities playground

Remember the joy of play, the freedom and challenge of climbing, swinging and sliding as high and as fast as you could? Boundless, The Centenary of Canberra National Playground is Canberra’s first all abilities playground. It is designed to make sure all children can experience the benefits of play.

The playground caters to different levels of ability and was initiated as a project to celebrate Canberra’s centenary. It is a place where children, young people and their families can play, socialise, explore, challenge physical limits and make new friends. Boundless is a free, state-of-the-art play space located on the shore of Lake Burley Griffin at Kings Park that is fun and inclusive of all children of all ages and abilities.

Hartley Lifecare

Hartley Lifecare is a Canberra based not-for-profit organisation that provides accommodation support and respite care for children, adults and their families with physical and complex disabilities living in the ACT and region.

Currently in the ACT there is a major shortage of disability friendly housing and especially sufficient respite facilities. Hartley Lifecare will use the funds donated through the Deakin Charity House Project to support a knock down rebuild of Hartley Court, a full-time based accommodation support facility, and a refurbishment of Tanderra House which will become a best practise respite facility.

Hartley Lifecare looks forward to being part of the Deakin Charity House Project and continues to provide high quality services and programs across residential, recreational, respite and community services for both children and adults with physical and complex disabilities.

Hands Across Canberra

Hands Across Canberra was established to change the way Canberrans think about being generous locally. Hands Across Canberra is directed by a Board of community, business and government leaders, committed to:

• raising awareness of need in Canberra;• improving giving in Canberra;• working with community organisations to build their

capacity to undertake their good work; and• an improved connection between business,

government and organisations helping people in need.

Hands Across Canberra raises funds for over 120 mainly small charities. Through Hands Across Canberra, funds from the Deakin Charity House project will be allocated to local charities providing important support and services to people with disabilities.

The Charities

Built for hopes and dreams

Following the tremendous success of the 2013 Franklin Charity House project, which raised over $580,000 for Canberra based charities, I am thrilled that the Land Development Agency (LDA) is again collaborating with the Master Builders Association of the ACT (MBA) on the Deakin Charity House project in 2015-16.

This exciting new project is taking our fundraising goals even further by designing and constructing not one but two homes to be released for sale at auction. The net proceeds from the auctions will be distributed to key local charities that provide important support and services to people with disabilities.

The project partnership arrangements are a testament to the strong relationships that exist and that can further be developed between the ACT government, MBA builders and service providers and materials supply partners.

The Deakin Charity House project aims to demonstrate that innovative and functional design combined with the use of modern efficient materials and inclusions can deliver two quality homes into a competitive, cost conscious, modern market.

The project is based on:

• showcasing adaptability features;• good design including solar orientation , efficient use of

space and light;• sound selection of materials which maintain a balance of

amenity and low lifetime cost; and• inclusions that provide high efficiency ratings for energy

and water appliances.

Through Hands Across Canberra, a foundation that provides a simple way for Canberrans to adopt more regular charitable habits, local charities providing important support and services to people with disabilities will receive the net proceeds from the project.

In addition to raising money for charity, the houses will provide an outstanding showcase of the skills and capabilities of the local building industry. The collaboration between the ACT Government and the ACT business sector demonstrates a positive commitment to social responsibility by all of those involved.

The LDA looks forward to being a part of this project which will involve the construction of two highly desirable properties, building better partnerships with participants, supporting local charities, and providing hope for the future for the ACT.

David DawesCEOLand Development Agency

CANBERRA IS A COMMUNITY WITH A PROUD RECORD OF DELIVERING ON THE UN CONVENTION ON THE RIGHTS OF PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES.

EARLIER THIS YEAR I COMMITTED THE ACT GOVERNMENT TO FURTHER ACTION TO IMPROVE OUTCOMES FOR PEOPLE WITH A DISABILITY IN OUR CITY.

AT THE CORE OF THIS COMMITMENT IS IMPROVING LIVEABILITY AND INCLUSION FOR PEOPLE WITH A DISABILITY. I AM PLEASED THE ACT GOVERNMENT HAS PARTNERED WITH THE MASTER BUILDERS ASSOCIATION OF THE ACT, RENAISSANCE HOMES AND THE ACT BUILDING INDUSTRY ON THE 2015-16 DEAKIN CHARITY HOUSE PROJECT. THE PROJECT WILL SUPPORT DISABILITY SERVICES AND INNOVATION IN LIVEABLE HOUSING

IN THE ACT.

PROJECTS LIKE THESE WOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE WITHOUT THE DEDICATION OF MANY IN OUR COMMUNITY, BUT ESPECIALLY THOSE WORKING THROUGH OUR LOCAL CHARITIES AND SUPPORTING PEOPLE WITH A DISABILITY. WITHOUT THEIR EFFORTS THE MANY WORTHY STORIES OF EVERYDAY PEOPLE WOULD GO UNTOLD.

I AM PROUD OF THE WAY OUR COMMUNITY HAS COME TOGETHER TO DELIVER THIS PROJECT, AND WOULD ESPECIALLY LIKE TO THANK THE BUILDERS, APPRENTICES, SUBCONTRACTORS, AND TRADE SUPPLIERS FOR THEIR GENEROSITY IN CONTRIBUTING TO THIS PROJECT, AND BEING PART OF OUR WHOLE COMMUNITY’S EFFORT TO IMPROVE THE LIVED EXPERIENCE OF PEOPLE WITH A DISABILITY IN OUR COMMUNITY.

The Proposal

The Master Builders Association of the ACT (MBA) and the Land Development Agency (LDA) have partnered with Renaissance Homes to deliver a new Charity House Project for 2016.

The Deakin Charity House project is a joint project where the LDA is contributing two adjoining separate title in-fill parcels of land in Deakin and MBA members, led by Renaissance Homes, are donating (or providing at low cost) construction materials and labour. The 2015-16 Project will deliver two home and land packages to market for auction in 2016.

The net proceeds from the auctions will be distributed to local charities supporting people with a disability. The three organisations selected to benefit from the proceeds of the Charity Houses are:

• Boundless Children’s Playground - 70% • Hands Across Canberra - 20%• Hartley Lifecare – 10%.

MBA has delivered two Charity Houses previously, in 2006 the Jenolan Charity House and in 2013 the Franklin Charity House. Combined the previous projects raised just over $850,000.00. The scale of this current project and the knowledge gained from previous experience should see over $1,000,000.00 raised.
