The DPJ Foundation has launched its first 'Gofala Am Dy Ben' (Mind Your Head) campaign, to raise awareness of mental health in agriculture.

Alaw Llwyd Owen, from Welsh language organisation Nerth Dy Ben and a regional champion for the DPJ Foundation, said: "It’s been a difficult two years with the pandemic, and it’s a busy time of year for farmers, with lambing, calving and general farm work so it’s never been more important to take care of our head and our mental health.

“As an organisation, Nerth Dy Ben campaigns to remind our rural Welsh community of the strength and resilience we all have to cope with the daily challenges and achieve things from day to day.

"Being able to welcome a charity as valuable as the DPJ Foundation to join us in this conversation and to work together on this particular campaign is a golden opportunity to open up the chat about what we can do on a daily basis to care and maintain that mental strength.”

The DPJ Foundation is encouraging people to contribute by sharing the message about taking care of our head.

All you need to do is share pictures or videos on your social media of what you do, deal with challenges on a daily basis especially when faced with things that cause stress as well as sharing tips for how you maintain your own wellbeing and resilience.

Use the hashtag #GofalaAmDyBen as well as tagging the DPJ Foundation and Nerth Dy Ben in your posts.
