Equicanis works mainly with youth at risk,horses and dogs. We try to create opportunities for opening, for developping, by creating relationships with these beautifull big animals. Our activities vary from workshops in which we take care of the horses, cuddling with the horses over walks with the horses, 'Equine Assisted therapy' and learning for individuals or groups, as also activities to developp ourselves as equine assisted therapist. The activities are for youngsters of the Wissel and also externals. The main tasks are taking care of the horses and the surroundings (feeding, clean the paddock, do exercises with the horses). Besides that the volunteer will assist in some ateliers where youngsters are taking part in. A day starts in the morning at 8.30 with taking care of the horses, in the afternoon the volunteer will help where needed, around 15h we take again care of the horses and the paddock.
