The day is sponsored by NFU Mutual Yorkshire Central and the Yorkshire Agricultural Society and will cover understanding common mental health issues, recognising key signs and symptoms, how to create an effective action plan to support others, and looking after your own wellbeing.

The training is followed by two years of aftercare so those who take part can check their understanding or discuss experience of supporting others.
