Wandarrah Estate

About

'Wandarrah' is indigenous for 'meeting place', reflecting a facility for both humans and horses to interact, learn and form friendships with one another.

The 20-acre property located in Beaconsfield Upper, is owned by Bec Feasey and Mark Evans, who created the facility from what was a blank canvas in mid 2013. 
 

A keen animal lover for all of her life, Bec entered the equine world in 2007, when she purchased her first horse. Her second horse came along unexpectedly in 2008 - a six-year-old mare suffering from severe colic due to her poor condition. Following life-saving surgery, the rehabilitation period was when Bec's true passion for equine welfare emerged.

As an active volunteer with Project Hope Horse Welfare Victoria for five years, she provided short- and long-term care to a large number of neglected and severely injured horses, offered transportation and inspected cases of reported neglect. Welfare of wildlife also holds high importance; for over six years she has volunteered with Wildlife Victora, rescuing and transporting wildlife.

In 2011, Bec was employed as an Equine Veterinary Nurse at the University of Melbourne Equine Centre. This experience was invaluable for her understanding and ongoing educational development in equine science.

​

She holds a Bachelor of Equine Science and a Diploma in Equine Podiotherapy, both of which have enabled her to develop substantial skills and knowledge in the modern management of horses, underpinned by a strong education in science and scientific method.
