Creating Community through shared events
In addition to our core work of counselling and equine facilitated healing and psychotherapy, we work with other members of our community to create connection and allow for somatic healing and restorative work. Belonging is an essential need for our wellness, and creating connections can help create capacity, within ourselves and within our communities.
If you would like to work together to help make a difference in the lives of others, and to charities in need, please get in touch. Or to participate in one of our events, scroll down to view availability.
We look forward to making a difference together, and connecting with you soon. x
