Stella McCartney unveils new project

The designer shared a video on her page, pressingly focusing on mental health and how the equine can be a source of help. She captioned, “HEALING POWER OF HORSES: Horses have always supported my #mentalhealth and wellbeing. When I met @DeepakChopra and learned about #NeverAlone, I knew we had to collaborate on #HealingPowerofHorses.”

Her step toward this educational project stems from her experience with horses. In the past, the designer has revealed that these majestic creatures have been a source of support for her. “Horses have been a source of support for my entire life. The time I spent with Operation Centaur and the incredible work they do opened my eyes even wider to the powers of equine therapy in giving a helping hand to those who need it,” she said; according to the organization.

The equestrian joins forces for the noble deed

Stella’s love for horses began ever since she was a kid. Keeping up with it, the designer put forth a new collection for the winter campaign named ‘Horse Power.’ The collection inspired Stella to take on a new journey. However, that wasn’t the only source. As a mother, Stella revealed that she has constantly observed the current world trends’ impact on her children.
