Farm Fit is a wellbeing project for farmers and their families run by Land to Sea CBT in partnership with Fairwinds Cornwall.
Farm Fit is one of 12 projects to have been successful in securing funding via the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Suicide Innovation Fund to offer support to farmers and families across Cornwall and the IOS.
We aim to engage with the farming community, working with partnership agencies to provide practical wellbeing support.
FarmFit is run by an experienced mental health practitioner and CBT Therapist who has 20 years experience working in NHS mental health services.
FarmFit works in a practical and constructive way, supporting farmers to help identify, manage stressors, and build resilience in a way that is right for them and offering timely access to a wellbeing assessment for wellbeing support and psychological therapy as required.
FarmFit provides the correct level of intervention, tailored specifically to individual need. If the farmer, or their families, require more specialised support, they will know who to refer to for further support.
FarmFit understands that famers work long hours and leaving the farm for appointments can be a problem.
Therefore, FarmFit can provide support over a range of modalities such as phone, online and offer ‘walk and talk’ sessions in which they can visit your farm offering an outreach approach.
