πΎ Bringing Farmers Together for Important Conversations π
Our Regional Manager, Kelly, recently travelled down to Merino to be part of a fantastic community event focused on mental health and wellbeing.
The evening brought together around 30 farmers from the Merino community for a screening of Just a Farmer β a powerful film that opened the door to some really important conversations about rural life, mental health and looking out for one another.
Following the screening, Kelly was part of a panel discussion where community members had the opportunity to ask questions and have an open conversation about mental health and wellbeing. We were also incredibly fortunate to have Leila McDougall, the producer and director of Just a Farmer, join the panel and share her insights.
It was wonderful to see the Merino farming community come together, connect and create a safe space for conversation. π
A big thank you to everyone who came along and helped make the night such a meaningful event. These conversations matter, and together we can keep making it easier to talk. ππ
