Glenda's Gals is a diversional therapy program, that is designed for women living with breast cancer, currently receiving treatment for breast cancer and or breast cancer survivors.

The object of the program is to provide an interactive diversional therapy for women, in a safe, non-threatening, empathetic but empowering environment. 

During the sessions, you will interact with your horse through grooming, handling and some groundwork exercises (if you want to).  There is no set requirement for how much or how little you have to do with your chosen horse, if you would like to simply enjoy the company of one of our therapy horses whilst you groom him or her, that is perfectly fine.  Alternatively if you would like to participate in some basic ground work training with your horse, there is that option as well.

All sessions are led by Anne Van Dyke or Jennifer Kuhn, both qualified and experienced horse trainers. 

Anne is supported by her staff and all participants are given guidance and will have a HITS member with them to assist where needed. 

Glenda's Gals Sessions are free of charge and there is no requirement for participants to have any prior experience with horses.  

Glenda's Gals runs every TBD on a weekly basis and sessions are generally 2 hours in duration, with the flexibility for you to stay for as little or as long as you would like.
