In 2006 few people were talking about #MentalHealth. @yanafarming launched in 2008. Tonight the #HawkstoneFarmers Choir won @BritishTalent highlighting rural mental health. Many congratulations and heartfelt thanks to @ClarksonsFarm1

This is well worth watching @ClarksonsFarm1 - sums up the impact isolation has on #MentalHealth in farming. Highlights the support available from @yanafarming @yellowwelliesuk @FCNcharity

Well done #Hawkstone Farmers’ Choir - a poignant message. YANA, You Are Not Alone, is the East Anglian Rural Mental Health Charity supporting those in farming and rural businesses. We’ll be rooting for you on BGT, @ClarksonsFarm1

[Chris Brayford @FGChrisBrayford]

I had tears in my eyes watching this.
117 farmers aged 20-64 took their own lives in England and Wales in 2022/23.
The Hawkstone Farmers’ Choir was set up to support mental health in agriculture.
In a few months’ time, farmers could win Britain’s Got Talent.
They’ve got my vote

Croxton to Thetford Road Norfolk - been here for more than a year. National Highways state it is not their problem.

[Clean Up Britain @cleanupbritain]

There are, literally, hundreds of thousands of discarded pieces of roadside equipment abandoned all over Britain. Councils that plead poverty but waste taxpayers money. They need to be 'named and shamed'. Please help us do this. Use our free App.

@sharrond62 @CNKAlliance I was Norfolk Patron for Marie Curie but the superb and highly valued Marie Curie care in Norfolk went many years ago. All the skills, palliative care research knowledge and wonderful nurses lost. Absolute tragedy. Nowhere near enough hospice palliative care beds to compensate.

@yellowwelliesuk @dpjfoundation I was so impressed by Emma’s drive and tenacity from the start when she contacted @yanafarming prior to setting up @dpjfoundation and what a tremendous success it has been. 🙌🙌🙌

[MER @Raker80]

Thank you @yellowwelliesuk I’m hugely I’m hugely honoured! It has been a real privilege to work with @yanafarming but it would not have been possible without amazing support of our farming communities, donors, fundraisers, volunteers, and the wonderful @KingsLynnSams 🙏🙏🙏 💐

[Farm Safety Foundation @yellowwelliesuk]

As #MindYourHead draws to a close we want to shine a spotlight on some of the unsung champions of rural wellbeing.

They may not be household names, but they have worked quietly and tirelessly to shift attitudes and ultimately, save lives...

Starting in England and there is no one more worthy of the title 'hero' than Melinda Raker MBE... 💛

@HighwaysEAST 2 lots of sign debris left for more than a year on Thetford - Croxton Road. Please could you sort? @NationalHways said it was @NorfolkCC responsibility: NCC said its Highways responsibility.

Visiting Herefordshire today to discuss farmers’ mental health. Proud to be Patron of We Are Farming Minds and to see its impact firsthand in the farming community.

Farmers contend with multiple external pressures and considerable uncertainty, which makes supporting their mental health and wellbeing so important. Thank you to our hosts John and Laura for sharing their stories.
