Mental Health in Farming The Farmers Guardian Podcast

    • Daily News

Following on from last week - Mental Health Awareness Week - we've caught up with the people at the forefront, tackling this huge issue for the farming industry and wider rural community. 
Suzy Deeley from RABI talks to Jez Fredenburgh about the strains farmers are facing, and the impact Coronavirus is having on fundraising and consequential social interaction.


Did you know there was 6,507 deaths in the UK in 2018 by suicide? Whilst this may be an uncomfortable fact, Emma Picton Jones of the DPJ Foundation believes we should be talking about it more. Emma is joined by Philip Wilson of the Farming Community Network (FCN), to discuss the signs of struggling mental health, who's suffering right now, and what help is available right now.
