Casting for Recovery is a health and well-being program run by Mending Casts Inc. whose members volunteer their time to hold FREE retreats for people with, or who have had breast cancer. Participants are taught the basics of fly-fishing, including casting and fly-tying to introduce them to the calming and relaxing nature of the sport. An afternoon of pampering is included to allow participants to relax and enjoy the beautiful, peaceful and natural environment. A menu of healthy, delicious food is provided for the entire retreat. The Casting for Recovery program was started in the USA in 2008 and has been running internationally with resounding success. Mending Casts Inc launched the program to Victoria in 2019
