Ann Clifford on By The Love Of Horses This Sunday on Zoomer Radio
We are fortunate to have as our special guest this week artist Ann Clifford, whose deep interest in horses is expressed in her artwork.
Ann’s interest in horses is also expressed in terms of their therapeutic power. Ann is an equestrian, an artist, a child and adolescent worker who has found ways to integrate her love of horses, her love of art and her interest in helping troubled adolescents and teens.I invite you to listen to By The Love of Horses this Sunday, October 4th, when I welcome Ann Clifford.
As a rider at 60 years old, I believe that all can benefit from the secret of riding. I myself raised with a British background, take inspiration from the Queen who continues to ride at 94 years old.
I believe that the same can be true for today’s youth. Riding can give them hope that they can overcome the challenges that they face and give them the confidence to become all that they can.
I was moved by the calls I received after my interview with Libby Znaimer from women and men who told me their stories of their love of horses and riding. They told me how riding set them up to overcome their circumstances. Some came out of the Depression, some out of World War II... these riders did not let these experiences dampen their efforts to achieve a full and happy life and make a contribution to their respective communities. All mentioned that riding helped immeasurably in this. They believe that riding gave them the confidence in themselves and in their ability to do something ... to go after what they wanted their lives to be.
If you are interested in sharing your experiences of riding in the past, or more recently with regard to today's youth, on my upcoming radio show on Zoomer Radio, please contact me at ByTheLoveOfHorses@redscarfequestrian.ca
