About us

High Life was born from a need for sustainability and climate resilience services tailored to the multi-unit residential sector. With our partners and sponsors, we seek to support people who own, live in or manage units and apartment buildings.

It’s becoming increasingly clear that services beyond sustainability and resilience are urgently required.

We need to be talking about topics like strata governance and the owners corporation act, insurance, emergency management, financial solutions, communications, and community connection. As well as being valuable in their own right, these wrap around services are critical enablers to living well, and improving sustainability and resilience outcomes in multi-res buildings and communities.

Too often, these communities are left out when it comes to conversations, programs, and policy about residential living in Australia. More than just and Expo, High Life seeks to help fill this gap by:

  • Bring stakeholders together to advocate more effectively

  • Helping government and stakeholders better understand the needs and challenges of unit and apartment communities

  • Centralising practical, useful information for owners and occupiers

  • Hosting the Expo

High Life is managed by Let Me Be Frank, and supported by government and industry partners.

Let Me Be Frank is a sustainability and change agency, we co-create strategy, culture, and action with businesses, communities, and governments who want a just future now, for people and for the planet.

Thanks to lived experience, and years of collaboration with the strata sector and communities, our staff have a deep passion for sustainability, community, and better living in apartments, units, and townhouses. We see the need to advocate for and with the sector, to create and share resources, and we see the opportunity to retrofit these buildings to become part of our city’s sustainable, liveable future.

We seek to live and work by our values: Just, Curious, Connecting, Kind, Radically Transparent, and Fun. To find out more about us, please read our annual accountability reports.

1% of our income is paid to Traditional Owners. We encourage everyone to Pay the Rent. We donate 1% of our annual income to environmental organisations via 1% for the Planet. For emissions we can’t avoid, we offset with Greenfleet.

What’s happening with High Life?

Due to a lack of funding, the Expo will not be running in 2025, however this website will remain live and e-updates will continue. If you’re keen to be involved, support, or fund High Life and future events, please let us know using the form below.

We know there’s still a huge need and desire for sustainability and better apartment living support! Let’s make sure our strata building communities get what they need.
