HorsePower Denmark Participant receives Community TAB Scholarship
Kattrina Anderson from HorsePower Denmark has received one of Community TABs Hearts and Horses Scholarships.
The scholarship supports participants to access the vital therapy HorsePower Australia provides. For Kattrina, it means being able to continue to attend her fortnightly riding sessions at the Denmark centre.
Kattrina has a mild intellectual disability and the programs run by HorsePower Australia offer her the opportunity to participate in activities in her local community that assist her in developing new skills and abilities.
Kattrina has a very special bond with horses and spending time with them soothes and provides her with a sense of calmness.
“Going horse-riding is one of my favourite activities to do. I love all the horses and being out in the fresh air and riding,” Kattrina said.
HorsePower Denmark added their thanks to Community TAB and their support of the HorsePower Australia Hearts and Horses Scholarship program, as well as thanks to all those who support Kattrina to attend her sessions including Kirsty her support worker who drives the 100km round trip each fortnight ensuring she gets to spend time in the saddle.
