MARCH 1ST 2025
Supported by the Huon Valley Voice For Health and Health Consumers Tasmania through funding by Tasmanian Department of Health
Why This?
At the Huon Women’s Health Collective we love women. In all their wonder, complexity & diversity.
This festival is celebration of empowerment and community care. In a world where women often navigate unique health and wellbeing challenges, this event creates a space for learning, sharing, and healing together.
By bringing together inspiring speakers, hands-on workshops, and supportive conversations, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of women’s health, amplify diverse voices, and strengthen the ties that bind our community.
This festival isn’t just an event—it’s a movement.
A movement toward integrative healthcare, inclusivity, and the celebration of the wisdom and resilience of women everywhere.
Together, we’re weaving a fabric of support that will nourish us far beyond the festival itself.
