HHN have been working in Bosnia for over 20 years. Our season runs from April-October, (due to harsh winters). Many of our clients rely heavily on the support we provide and struggle during the winter. A recent audit confirmed that there is still a need for our presence. Life in Bosnia is still very tough, with poverty, unemployment and a difficult political situation. Morale can be very low and clients suffer with depression and anxiety and a number have diagnosed PTSD.

Learning new skills is very good for self-esteem & confidence. Running workshops for Reiki & Massage giving techniques for self care and use on friends & family. Encouraging Reiki shares reduces the risk of isolation particularly in the winter. Feedback from workshops to date has been very encouraging - clients are receptive, enthusiastic & excited about learning new skills. Our aim is to establish a HHN School for Complementary Therapy in Sarajevo and provide new employment oppportunities.
