🏢 About the local organisation
The associations Ciampacavallo O.N.L.U.S. And EquiAzione join together to organise rehabilitation activities, sport and ludic practice for disabled people, and for people with mental, relational or social disorder. Every single activity is inclusive, that is, planned and realized together with staff and users. Together, they organize services for every person who wants to approach horses in a different way, different from sport or traditional equestrian center. This way of working, purely non assistential, allows to create an authentic relational frame. With this camp we will work at the settling up of a new place in the south of Rome, with the aim of wellcoming more people and offer to them the opportunity to develop a relationship with horses in an exciting setting of nature and history.
💼 What the programme involves
In the camp, there will always be disabled people, children, social workers, volunteers, fellowship and horse passionates. All the activities will be organized in mixed group made by volunteers and other users. Daily activities will be: feeding and cleaning horses, kitchen, shopping in near farms, cleaning of the house. In the first period of the camp we will settle up the camp and prepare garden and vineyard (plowing, enclosure). During the second period we will prepare the sowing and we will clean the part of the home not renewed yet.
🏠 Accommodation on site
The volunteers will sleep in a tent, inside the structure that is hosting the camp. The tents can be either brought by the volunteers or provided by the organisation on request. Three bathrooms are available for all the guests of the camp. There are two kitchens (one inside and one outside) to cook the meals.
