Garcia Comas Services, of the Grupo Bellota 1866 – has collaborated for years with the La Casa de La Alegria Association (www.lacasadelalegria.es).

Since 2013, EQUINE THERAPY sessions have been available to children and teens from ages 5 to 17 at the Centre Pilot School of Sant Just Desvern.

The sessions take place at the Hípica Poni Club riding school in Sant Just Desvern and are divided into 3 groups to accommodate to the diversity of students participating.

Thanks to Bellota 1866 and García Comas Services, La Casa de l’Alegria, not only becomes active again but grows, proof of the importance that being in contact with nature and the world of horses has for these kids and teens. Among other things, it helps them overcome fears and encourages autonomy.

By 2015, with the additional support of the Rotary Club Esplugues, a total of 50 children are already benefitting from this activity.

In the 2015-16 academic year, the school will include the activity regularly as a result of the benefits it has on the students.
