It was so windy this morning. Getting the farm jobs done was quite a challenge. I did decide to take shelter by the wallside & was soon joined by Hetty, Billy & Houdini. Always such an incredible feeling where nothing else matters other than being in that moment.💚 #MindYourHead
It's not all fluffy sheep and an idyllic way of life. Behind the photos everyday there are daily stresses. Having suffered from depression many yrs ago now back then I didn't talk I felt ashamed and a failure. I can now recognise the signs.. please #mindyourhead Farm Safety Foundation
I am proud to support Mind Your Head week in support of farmers’ mental health.
Farmers have been under real pressure in recent years, and poor mental health is one of the biggest challenges facing rural communities.
Thanks Farm Safety Foundation for raising awareness.

Proud to back Farm Safety Foundation's #MindYourHead campaign, encouraging farmers not to be afraid to speak out and seek help if they're struggling with their mental health.
I'm really pleased to join Farm Safety Foundation's #MindYourHead campaign. Farmers and their families can be more susceptible to mental ill health, so it’s great to see a movement to encourage people in farming communities to speak up and seek help if and when they need.
