A reminder to farmers if you’re feeling low or lonely #keeptalking This is so lovely it deserves to be shared far & wide ❤️❤️❤️
We know lots of hard-working farming & crofting families have felt the pain this awful spring. This uplifting version of “Stand by Me” recorded with the wonderful Farmers Choir is a powerful reminder to please remember - especially if you feel low or lonely - there are so many people in Scottish agriculture who there to stand by you - to talk with or lend a hand. Our sincere thanks to the choir & to everyone who helped us with the video - from farmers & auctioneers to consultants, vets, young farmers, farm supplies retailers and lots of others. If you are struggling, RSABI is here to stand by you too - 24/7 on 0808 1234 555 or via webchat at rsabi.org.uk ❤️ #KeepTalking #AreEweOkay #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #kindness

There was a hushed silence when James Banister from @thenaac talked about his experience of being trapped in a potato harvester at the Farm Safety & Security event, today. Powerful words that made the farmers think hard! His closing comment… “at least I’m here to talk about it” – at Newark-on-Trent, England

This week I hosted a mental health roundtable with organisations that help look out for farmers. A great opportunity to hear from attendees about the main drivers of mental health concerns in the sector and how farmers can be better supported. #Farming
