Benefits of Therapeutic Riding The rhythmic side-to-side, forward, and backward movement of the horse mimics the human gait, moving a rider's pelvis and torso in the same motion as walking. This stimulation gently relaxes taught muscles and improves core strength, balance, and coordination. Learning new routines, sequencing, and accessing short-term memory skills assist individuals who otherwise may experience difficulty with these tasks. The real success of therapeutic riding comes from most riders being highly motivated to learn new skills, simply because they genuinely enjoy riding!

Our program is designed for up to 18 participants, from kindergarten to retirement, with a variety of mental, physical, and emotional challenges, for the fall, winter and spring riding sessions. The fall and spring sessions are eleven week while the winter session is six weeks. Our summer program is smaller, with a maximum of six riders, and runs for six weeks. A team of professionals provide an inclusive riding environment that aids physical rehabilitation, helps people with their personal development, teaches horsemanship skills, and is a stimulating recreational activity.

Children with Sanfilippo Syndrome are missing an essential enzyme that breaks down a complex body sugar called heparan sulfate. This sugar slowly builds in the bones, the brain and other organs, stopping normal development and causing hyperactivity, sleep disorders, loss of speech, mental retardation, dementia, and finally death by the mid teens. There is no cure or treatment yet. Sanfilippo Syndrome is one of seven Mucopolysaccharide (MPS) disorders. There are four different enzyme deficiencies that cause Sanfilippo, which are described as types A, B, C & D. There is very little difference between ther four types, t hough there have been a few very mild cases of the B form reported where the children have remained relatively healthy into early adult life.

The Langley Care Foundation, though the Langley Care Society improves the lives of our elders and those with disabilities through the operation of the Langley Lodge complex care facility. Demographics show there is an increasing number of elders that require high levels of care. The Health Authority refers to this as “complex care”. Our residents require assistance with functions that many seniors take for granted. Everyday activities such as dining, bathing, and other personal needs are attended to. In addition we strive to provide programs that enhance their quality of life but which are not totally funded by our healthcare system. Programs such as physiotherapy, music therapy, and horticultural therapy are proven to improve both quality of life and longevity. A gap exists between what is funded and what we require to properly enhance our residents’ quality of life. Your investment will ensure that seniors live out their lives with dignity and in comfort.
