You know, so that's what I learned.
It's not just about the person themselves, but the environment that they're living in and how to recognise when things mightn't be just right.
Actually, one thing I learned which stood out in particular was body language.
So we learned about this idea of standing side by side with the farmer as opposed to directly head on or maybe standing at the gate looking out towards the field side by side and they might be a little bit more likely to open up then because it's less intimidating, it's more what they're used to and it might just encourage that little bit of extra conversation if you ask the right questions at the right time.
That was something that stood out for me.
What advice would you then have to those working with someone who might be struggling?
It's not about you being a professional counsellor or you having all the right answers.
But if you can just simply ask somebody, are they OK?
And have the confidence to do so.
The majority of time, that's just the conversation starter that's needed.
But it's knowing, you know, the GP is always the first support to call really in any mental health issue.
If you're unsure, signpost to the GP.
That would be my advice.
Just always ask the question.
So then for you, George, what advice would you have to someone who is struggling, but maybe finding it hard to talk about?
George Graham there.
Do you know, there's never a wiser word.
Most meaningful conversations on farms are had side by side, leaning over a five bar gate and not face to face.
That's how 90% of countrywide interviews are conducted, leaning on a five bar gate.
Della Kilroy reporting there.
