I WOULD LIKE TO GET INVOLVED

There are several ways to help, get involved and support Riders Minds. 

Some of the most powerful ways you can help are:

SHARE THE MESSAGE

  • Let’s talk mental health.
  • It’s OK to talk mental health and mental ill health.
  • It’s OK to not be OK.
  • It’s OK to seek support if/when you need it.
  • To look after mental health as we do physical health.
  • Apply riders’ care for, and awareness of, their horses to themselves.
  • Riders to get to know their signs of stress and/or character, temperament, behaviour changes as they do of their horses.
  • Encourage understanding of what mental health is… and what it isn’t, to further help reduce fear and stigma.
  • Share your experiences of, say, resilience, decision making, overcoming setbacks and challenges.

SPREAD THE WORD

  • Tell others about Riders Minds!
  • Support, like, share any Riders Minds social media campaigns.
  • Beyond riders too, as mental health affects us all.
  • Remember and remind mental health isn’t mental ill health! They are different not interchangeable.
  • Action is better than suffering in silence.

CONTRIBUTE TO MY STORY PAGE/NEWS PAGE

We’d love to hear your stories. They not only inspire and encourage others, but reinforce the message sharing.

Whether about your mental ill-health, how you manage a long-term condition, a disability, or how you managed or dealt with a personal/professional challenge, a stressful situation or stress in general, or how you keep cool, calm and collected, all are welcome!

Watch out for upcoming social media around News & Campaigns you could contribute to.
