Recreational activities
ALAN offers a range of adapted physical activities to its members who are living with a rare disease in order to boost their well-being, confidence and self-esteem. These activities are organised with the help of our many volunteers and are funded entirely through donations.

Saddle up
ALAN offers introductory sessions to horse therapy in collaboration with the Association de Thérapie Equestre (ATE) in Mondercange.These sessions are open to children, teenagers and young adults who are members of ALAN.
The goals are to:
- improve your muscle strength and coordination by directing, petting or brushing your pony
- improve your sitting balance while enjoying games on the back of a horse
- above all have good fun
The horse therapy sessions are organised on specific afternoons during the school holidays. Our young members receive an invitation to participate a few weeks in advance.
