Stephanie Berkeley: Yellow Wellies

Mary-Jane Lawrie is joined by Stephanie Berkeley from the Farm Safety Foundation 

Stephanie Berkeley is Manager of the Farm Safety Foundation, which you might know also as Yellow Wellies.  The Farm Safety Foundation was established in 2014 with the aim of improving farm safety in the UK.  The Foundation runs successful campaigns such as Farm Safety week and educates young farmers across the UK in colleges and young farmer clubs.  Stephanie talks to us about the importance of the charity, and resources available to all farmers.  

If you’d like to get in touch or find out more about The Farm Safety Foundation and sources of support you can find links in the show notes.  This episode was presented by Mary-Jane Lawrie edited by Cameron Waugh and produced by Kerry Hammond, in association with the Scottish Government.
