Horsepower Hills is pleased to announce an expansion of Hippotherapy program services.
Commencing in Term 2, a second Hippotherapy program, to be known as ‘St Leonards’, will join HorsePower Hills.
It will complement the HorsePower Hills Hippotherapy program that has been operating in Sawyers Valley by Occupational Therapist Jane Liddiard for over a decade.
Jane's program is known as 'Take the Reins'.
St Leonards has been operating as a HorsePower Australia Hippotherapy program for many years at a private property in West Swan. It is overseen by Physiotherapist Nicky Bushell.
The St Leonards team includes Hippotherapy Horse Handlers Alwyne Roach and Julie Nicholson and six highly-trained volunteers, some of whom have more than 30 years’ experience.

The St Leonards program operates from 9.30 to 1.30 on Thursdays during school term.
HorsePower Hills President Rebekah Millard said, “I am very pleased the St Leonards team has chosen to join us. We share the same ethos, compassionate values and outstanding skills that deliver results for our participants. We are honoured to apply our management and governance strength to support the work of this wonderful team of volunteers.”
