HEART - Healing Equine Art Resilience Therapy moved to 30 July

HEART Program

The HEART Program, which is an acronym for the Healing Equine Art Resilience Therapy Program has been designed for families impacted by domestic and family violence.  There will be a small fee of $25 per person. 

You will enjoy walking with and talking to horses, llamas and guinea pigs - watch the video 

The HEART program will help participants to connect with themselves and reconnect with family members. It provides the opportunity to focus on the present – the here and now, helping participants to move forward out of their past traumatic experiences by using equine and llama therapy. The art therapy will assist participants to reflect on their experiences with the horses, and identify their feelings and emotions, the focus will be on the personal meaning that each participant finds within their creative work. Overall combining horses and art creates a full-bodied life-changing positive experience.

The program is only suitable for children 5 years and older.

Please wear closed-in shoes - if you do not have any let us know and wear a hat. 

The price of this program is subsidised by being awarded a 2021 CommBank Staff Foundation, Community Grant and the Broken to Brilliant Op Shop.

The CommBank Staff Foundation was formed in 1917 to send care packages to Australians fighting in the First World War. Ever since it has enabled CommBank Staff to join together to support the community.

Thank you to the staff at CommBank who participate in Workplace Giving - this grant wouldn't be possible without you.
