On Anti-Bullying Week (13-17th November 2023) we chat to Mental Health Coach and Riders Minds Consultant, Sylvia Bruce about the sensitive topic that is bullying. Most equestrians have experienced or witnessed bullying within the industry, but it is not something that people like to talk about and still makes people feel uncomfortable. But what exactly is bullying, and what is it not? Bullying has a huge impact on mental health and well-being and in this episode Sylvia shares an insight into understanding how bullying is characterised, what to do if you are being bullied, what to do if you see someone being bullied and where to go for additional support.   If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.
