This practical study day is being organised to take place at Lane Farm on 10th April 2002. the day will have two aims: to continue the dissemination process from the Farmers Health Action research Project and to present health care providers with practical information for those wishing to develop similar initiatives.

The day will include a summary of the findings from the Farmers Health Project. Both physical and mental health aspects of the provision of health care for farmers and rural communities will be covered, together with organisational and managerial implications of establishing an innovative service.

Speakers from the Farmers Health Project, the Rural and farmers Health Service and other agencies will lead discussions, which cover practical issues. These will include making contact with farmers, managing a rural health service, recognising the importance of establishing relationships with other agencies, and the experience of setting up a new service without the support of a research project.
