The Girl Who Loved Horses


Listen Later

Back in 1983, 14 year old Gillian Atkins had one love in her life - her horses, she was horse mad from a young age. Devoting her life to them, there were even rumblings of Gillian having a possible Olympic shot in her chosen field, so capable was she - until one April evening, that came to a crashing halt.

As did Gillian's life.
