Mental health in equestrian sport is an important and understudied area of research. In 2021, Charles Owen conducted a study with masters student Charlotte Ricca to investigate the mental health of riders after a concussion. Finding were staggering and will be published as part of mental health awareness week 2022.

If you or anyone close to you has been affected by the issues raised within this study, you can contact Riders Minds or contact your health professional.
