Chances are you'll have similarly switched-on and concerned friends, but they might not have heard about the disastrous deal Trump is trying to push on us. Tag your friends in the comments who you think need to sign our petition! (link in bio)

Sarah, Tom and Kerri set up Vegans Support the Farmers in 2023 to build bridges with farmers and understand their points of view. We’ve had a blast running the half-marathons and fundraising for mental health support – something that has touched all three of us and our families.

The charity is named after Daniel Picton-Jones, who took his life following struggles with his mental health. We had the privilege of hearing his wife, Emma, talk at the Oxford Farming Conference about how she turned a tragedy into a positive force for change by creating The DPJ Foundation.

We first met them at the 2024 Royal Welsh Show and were very impressed with their work. They provide support that includes a mental health helpline and counselling, publishing books for children impacted by suicide and giving training to spot the signs that someone needs help.

Trump has pushed back his deadline, but time is still running out. Not everyone is aware of this issue, so please share this post to make sure friends and family can sign the petition.

Last year, we ran four half-marathons to fundraise, and we will be announcing which farming charity we are donating to shortly. So far nearly £6,000 has been raised.

The fundraiser is still live so please do head to our bio for a link and donate!

#MindYourHead #MentalHealth #SuicideAwareness

Despite the brilliant work done by the groups we meet at farming events like SOBS, The Farming Community Network, The DPJ Foundation, Yellow Wellies, YANA, Papyrus and many others, poor mental health remains an ongoing challenge in the farming community.

Farmers are still waiting for clarity on the recent #USUK #trade agreements and what exactly the impacts will be for them.

Perhaps this latest announcement is a sign that the government is starting to see sense and realise food is produced by hard working farmers and not supermarket fairies.

We’ll be taking action with @landworkersuk.bsky.social allies from across the movement, and we need you to be a part of it!

For more information please come to one of our zooms and hear why the LWA organised the rally.
