For children and young people with disabilities, horseback riding is not just a fun activity or a sport. It is a highly beneficial therapy for their development, as the horse allows them to establish an emotional bond and confidently strengthen different skills.

That's why, at Escola Alba, we offer equine therapy as a complementary activity within the school day. Last year, after months of lockdown due to Covid-19, being able to resume this outdoor activity in contact with nature was a gift for the students.

The problem is that it's quite an expensive activity, and almost half of the children and young people can't afford it, even though the Parents' Association subsidizes part of the cost. Therefore, we want to secure scholarships so that no student is left out this school year!

 

With €25 you can contribute to a 2-hour session for one student.
