For farmers and people in agriculture.

Don't let your mental health get on top of you.  You are not alone - we are here to help.

Talking is the most effective way of dealing with low moods and poor mental health.  We can provide fully funded counselling to support you within a week of initial contact. 

I ffermwyr a phobl mewn amaeth.

Peidiwch adael eih iechyd meddwl bwyso arnoch.  Dydych chi ddim ar ben eich hun - rydym yma i helpu.

Siarad yw'r ffordd fwyaf effeithiol o ddeilo gydag iselder ac iechyd meddwl gwael.  Rydym yn cynnig sesiynau wedi cyllido dyda chwnsler (yn y Gymraeg neu'r Saesneg) o fewn wythnos o'ch cyswllt cyntaf.

NFU Cymru Head of Operations, Kevin Owen said: “Farming can be an isolated profession, it’s hugely traditional and often carries a resistance towards seeking help. Farmers at the mercy of the elements and many factors are out of their control. All these issues combined can contribute to depression and anxiety, and if not dealt with, can slowly spiral out of control.

“With this in mind, we organised mental health awareness training as we believe now more than ever we must all be talking about mental health and the many ways that people can seek help – this was the first in a series of training sessions to be rolled out across our network in Wales. During the training day, Emma explained what contributes to changes in mental health, the signs of poor mental health, factors for suicide and how we can all help those in need of support.”
