Phil Donato toured Central West SES Units on Saturday October 9th. The visit was to say thank you to all the volunteers that have supported the community during the severe weather event.

Rural Aid Announces New National Phone Line For Faster Counselling Access: A new, dedicated phone line will allow farmers across the country to quickly and easily connect with the Rural Aid counselling team.

“We know that it’s important to have a trained counsellor help guide farmers through the period of reaching out for help,” Ms Stracey said.

The direct line will ensure farmers are provided a faster and more trauma-in-formed response to their request for counselling. Rural Aid’s counsellors are based across the country and offer free, confidential counselling to farmers and their families.

Rural Aid’s Manager of Mental Health and Wellbeing, Lauren Stracey, said the team will be able to prioritise and respond to calls more effectively with the new number 1300 175 594.
