About 15 years ago I had surgery on my hip that didn't work well & at a really low point, my physio recommended I seek out Mary Joy Langdon. With the care & expertise of her team at Wormwood Scrubs I got back on a horse... it was a real turning point mentally & physically.

Mary Joy Langdon was the first UK woman fire-fighter. Then, after eight years, she became a nun. She founded the Wormwood Scrubs Pony Centre, introducing inner-city children and the disabled to horse riding. Private Passions @BBCRadio3 with Mozart, Strauss, Bach and Grieg.
