Healing with Horses

How we can help

Hawkesbury Valley Equestrian Centre is a NON-registered provider, offering innovative social participation experiences with horse riding and general horse care, which helps build confidence and self-esteem in participants whilst encouraging a healthy lifestyle.
It helps people learn about themselves and horses, builds relationships and works towards community participation.

At HVEC we aim to inspire and create a love for horses which will last a lifetime. 

Horses are calming animals with an intuitive nature and often respond to the feeling's we show. Because of these qualities, horses can be used to help people heal, respond and understand themselves and others around them.

​

WHAT IS INVOLVED? 

Each person is different and has different needs, therefore our programs are tailored to each individual based on an initial assessment.
