Ben Maguire AM reflects on the healing power of horses, community and what is means to be Australian this Australia Day. 

A lifelong horseman, mental health advocate and this year’s Yass Valley Australia Day Community Ambassador, Ben speaks about what it means to represent and serve a community, and how values like care, resilience and connection sit at the heart of the work he and his wife Marina do through Remount, and their family farm, Gunben.
