I am sorry to post a survey link on here, as it is not my intention to overburden forum users. Please forgive me.

However, the University of Reading (David Rose), Exeter (Matt Lobley), and Sheffield (Ruth Little) are working on a project aimed at improved mental health service provision to farming families. Some of you may have filled in Exeter's Big Farming Survey, which focused mainly on the drivers of health problems. This is more focused on support and COVID impacts.

There are two short surveys (10 mins) about COVID impacts on farming mental health.

One survey for farming families

One survey for supporters of farming mental health (e.g. charities, faith groups, auction mart staff, NHS, etc.)

You may be able to do both if you are in a farming family and volunteer/work for a charity or other support organisation.

If you find time to fill it in, we would be enormously grateful. We are working closely with policy-makers and the mental health charities on this project. Results will be publicly released here where you can find our more about the project.

Thank you.

Looked at the survey, as soon as I got the the option of non binary/third gender I went no further.
