This enables, for example, riding therapy for 13-year-old twin sisters.
Born in 2008 as an extremely premature baby, the lives of the two girls are marked by many debilitating treatments. In addition, the chronically ill parents, as early retirees, have to watch out for every penny. The “Lighthouse” project aims to help in the event of such difficult fates. The family turned to it after acquaintances brought them to their attention.
Now the twins - after the previous other funding has been stopped - thanks to "Lighthouse" can again attend weekly riding therapy for a year.
It's one of the most effective ways to improve your motor skills over the long term.
And it's the kind of help they enjoy the most.
