At the Strasbourg December Plenary, I spoke about the mental health of Europe's farmers.
The hard work of families sustains us all, yet day in and day out farmers are overwhelmed. Often they are isolated, and facing constant changed, driven by policy created in places such as the European Parliament. Which often leaves their mental health to be destroyed at times.
Suicide ideation is twice as high among farmers than the general population. In my speech, I plead with farmers across Europe to break the silence, the stigma and the fear.
In Ireland, we have taken steps to alleviate the mental health struggles with the introduction of programs such as; On Feirm Ground and Make the Moove.
I reiterate my statements that the Commission needs to make mental health
a real political priority. We need immediate mental health initiatives and continuous funding at an EU level to stop death by suicide and support our farmers, colleagues and families.
