Equinoterapia Delta del Llobregat

What Equinoterapia Delta del Llobregat does

Equinoterapia Delta del Llobregat is a non-profit association (asociación sin ánimo de lucro) registered in Spain, operating from the Open Sports Club equestrian facility in El Prat de Llobregat, Catalonia. It delivers animal-assisted therapeutic and educational services centered on horses and dogs, including equinoterapia (equine therapy) for psychic, physical, and social pathologies, hipoterapia (hippotherapy), and dog-assisted therapy (Terapias Asistidas con Perros). The organization also runs educational and road-safety workshops for schools, institutes, and universities, often in collaboration with local police departments of three Baix Llobregat municipalities, and operates a recurring inclusive summer program (Casal de Verano) each July.

The organization employs roughly 10 staff across clinical and operational roles, including a physiotherapist, equinotherapy monitors, and animal-assisted intervention specialists led by director Eva Linares and activities manager Veronica Hurtado. Service delivery is hybrid: most therapy and workshop activity occurs at the Open Sports Club facility, while the team also operates a mobile model, transporting horses to schools and entities whose facilities permit on-site sessions. The digital presence is modest, comprising an informational website available in Catalan, Spanish, and English, alongside Facebook, YouTube, and a Blogger blog.

Revenue mechanics rely on professional-services fees for therapy sessions, workshops, and the seasonal summer program; pricing is contact-based and not publicly disclosed, and no revenue, funding, or financial statements are published. The customer base spans children with special educational needs and their families, schools and educational institutions across the Baix Llobregat region, and government/municipal partners. There is no disclosed venture capital or institutional ownership, no parent company, and no evidence of public listing; the association appears independently operated by its founding team.
