Embracing farmers impacted  by accidents

Aisling Kiernan profile Embrace FARM and the work they do with families and speaks to some of the people impacted by farming accidents

Majella Philpott's father Dan died after a farm accident in 2011. The Philpotts have received great support from Embrace Farm in recent years.  

Embrace FARM was established in 2014 to support people who have been affected by farm accidents, whether through injury or the death of a loved-one.

The club hosts regular meetings for farm-accident survivors, providing them with a shared space to talk (some of them may have suffered permanent injuries); and supports are given to people who have lost a loved-one in a farm accident.
