Esme Pye was 16 years old when she left Australia for the United Kingdom to be a hairdressing apprentice, but she missed the sunshine so returned home before completing the apprenticeship.
Once back in Australia, she realised she also missed hairdressing and it was only after a visit to Charles Darwin University (CDU) Alice Springs campus she became determined to do both,
Esme chose a non-traditional path in her hairdressing career. Instead of an apprenticeship, she studied a hairdressing course and started her own business.
In an Australian first, Charles Darwin University (CDU) is introducing a nationally accredited course in Therapeutic Horticulture, bringing an alternative therapy technique to complement a range of health and social services.
Therapeutic Horticulture is an emerging industry using plants and gardening activities that connect with nature to improve physical, emotional, and psychological well-being.
