Hi, it’s #AgMentalHealthWeek and we all have our struggles, even those who seem the most resilient. I struggle to balance being a father and a farmer. Let’s #ShareTheLoad we are in this together👋🙂.
After the wonder week that was #AgMentalHealthWeek I am proud to say when I was suffering with depression it was farming, agricultural and my family that saved my life #talking #Mindfulness #Agriculture

Too often we forget focus on the crucial farming asset which is THE FARMER. Try to spend some time next week discussing #AgMentalHealthWeek
This photo is from May 2016, for around 18 months my mental health had been taking a real dive, without me really recognising it. The one person who did was my mum, but she was unable to get through to me. #AgMentalHealthWeek
There’s always a member of the LRSN family ready to sit and have a cuppa and listen....don’t go through it alone. #kettleson #letskeeptalking #hereforyou #AgMentalHealthWeek
We are loving our new The Farming Community Network milk tanker stickers, just a small part of keeping the conversation going. It’s important that we all encourage farmers to open up about their experiences. Remember if you are struggling, don’t feel isolated, you are not alone #AgMentalHealthWeek
The challenges we are facing on farm are all very real and with another wet autumn the pressure can easily build.
For #AgMentalHealthWeek I have just done this short video.
Make sure you take time to look after yourself.
Congratulations Emma on getting the recognition you truly deserve. It’s been a pleasure helping to fundraise for The DPJ Foundation with the NFU Cymru 🚜 #SheWhoDaresFarms merchandise. #AgMentalHealthWeek kicked off to a wonderful start with this news.

It’s #WorldMentalHealthDay #AgMentalHealthWeek it’s important to do your best, try your hardest and know you can’t please everyone all of the time. #food #farming #family
Very lucky to get time off farm in Copenhagen walked 3 miles in the morning sunshine. #AgMentalHealthWeek #MileforMentalWellbeing #mentalhealth
In parts of the world it is #AgMentalHealthWeek and I want to encourage farmers to make their own health, both physical and mental, a priority!
Life is tough for the world but in #AgMentalHealthWeek let’s pause for a moment and think about the positives of living and working in the countryside

Straight from the farmers mouth...the value of the auction mart in providing a social hub and tackling mental health in farming.
'The auction offers a social hub where farmers can meet, talk livestock, have a brew, buy supplies and keep an eye on trade.'
