Equiteam's Liz Daniels chats to Riders Minds Founder Victoria Wright ahead of World Mental Health Day on 10th October, about why she wants to bring the equestrian community together for a cup of tea and a talk. With a strong message of talking to each other, rather than about one another, Victoria shares why she would like this to become common place and not just for World Mental Health Day. As the pair delve into the narrative around suicide, Victoria shares why we need to change our language and drop the word 'committed'.
