Tecnopol is sponsoring this support and wellbeing initiative together with the Niño Jesús University Children's Hospital in Madrid and the association Equitación como Terapia.
We are pleased to announce that TECNOPOL is the proud sponsor of the four days of Horse Assisted Interventions, organised by the Equitation as Therapy Association, aimed at children and adolescents of the Niño Jesús University Children's Hospital. These workshops will take place during the 2023-2024 school year and will be held at the Hípica Montenegro, Madrid.
At TECNOPOL, we firmly believe that children are the future of our society, and it is our responsibility to support initiatives that contribute to their well-being and development. Sponsoring this event is a manifestation of our commitment to the community, especially to the youngest, who represent the future of our world.
The Equitation as Therapy Association is dedicated to helping people with disabilities and their families, using sport, culture and training as tools for personal development. Therapies with horses offer numerous benefits, both physical and psychological. These include improved coordination and strength, as well as increased self-esteem and improved communication and empathy.
It is especially significant to mention that the children and adolescents who participate in these workshops have undergone surgery and need myoelectric prostheses for their daily life. Therapies with horses help them to assimilate the handling of their prostheses and to normalise their use, facilitating their integration into daily life and improving their autonomy and confidence.
Each session represents a step forward in the children's quest for autonomy and personal growth. The planning and programming of the sessions are carried out from a multidisciplinary perspective of the intervention, maintaining constant contact with doctors, educators, psychiatrists, psychologists, speech therapists, physiotherapists and other professionals involved in the wellbeing, therapy and education of the users. In addition, close communication is maintained with families, ensuring a holistic and coordinated approach.
The proposal consists of four days during the school year, in which three simultaneous activities will be carried out for the children, who will rotate through the successive activities. During these days, different personal development and wellbeing objectives are worked on, with the aim of enabling participants to improve their quality of life.
Our involvement in this project reflects our dedication to causes that have a positive impact on society. In addition to our expertise in large infrastructure projects, we are also committed to supporting initiatives that benefit our local community.
We are very proud to be part of this transformative initiative and excited to see the positive impact it will have on the lives of children and their families. Join us in this wonderful initiative and discover how TECNOPOL is contributing to the future of our society, starting with the very youngest.
