Farmers going the mile for mental wellbeing

"I think we're so good at looking after our livestock, but we need to look after ourselves better."

"It's a hugely rewarding career, but a hugely challenging career." Peter and Paula Hynes, who founded Ag Mental Health Week, on their farm in Aherla, Co Cork.

Farmers will be going the mile for mental wellbeing this month.

In its third year, Ag Mental Health Week is taking place from October 10th to 16th, and founder Peter Hynes is hoping to encourage as many people to get outdoors and "do a 'mile for mental wellbeing', and take some space for themselves".
