Karis Life was sparked by a simple question, “Where have you been?” This question was put to our Director Rej Punchayil, on a visit to Hornsby Westfield many years ago, by an elderly woman struggling to locate her car – she assumed Rej was the concierge. Noting her confusion and difficulty with mobility, Rej kindly offered to help the woman, eventually finding her car after several frustrating hours of search

Stunned by the lack of support at the woman’s disposal, especially given her clear vulnerability, her negative experience at the shopping centre stayed with him. At the time, Rej was seeking a new venture. The experience gave him the clarity to seek out a company that would allow him to carry out his new mission; to make the lives of those who are vulnerable, with limited mobility or disability, easier and more dignified.

Each day we strive to be the answer to the question, “Where have you been?” Karis Life is the solution to our customers’ leading a better life, and “we are right here,” just as Rej was when he was needed most. We’re passionate about advocating for those who need it most, with a focus on compassion, expertise and an unwavering dedication to providing tailor-made assistive technology solutions.

Karis Life empowers you to live a life with independence and dignity.

Founded as Comfort Discovered in 1984 and later bought by Rej, the business has continued to grow steadily.
