At the end of last year, Imagine If, a health and social sector partnership, took over the management of The Farming Health Hub - previously managed by the Duchy Cornwall.

So far, Imagine If has overseen the final stages of The Farming Health Hub Report, written by the University of Exeter. It hasnow moved to the next phase of development; opening up the conversation about health and wellbeing in farming communities to the people in them and those who work alongside them.

This June, Imagine If, the Farming Health Hub and the University of Exeter are hosting three unique farming focus groups. The group will look to engage farmers and their families, as well as people from all backgrounds who work alongside farmers.

This could be anyone from a vet, a bank manager, an insurance broker or an accountant who supports farmers with health and wellbeing concerns on an ad-hoc, informal basis.

If this is you, then partners involved in the Health Hub would love to see you at one of the Focus Groups.

You can attend any of the following sessions – in Devon and Cornwall in person, or online.

The online session takes place today (Tuesday, June) from 9.30am to 11am.

There is then a Cornwall session at Ponsanooth Hall on Wednesday (June 28) between 10am and 11.30am, and a Devon session at Okehampton Business Centre on Thursday, June 29 between 10.30am and 12 noon.
