What is the Farm Safety Foundation?
Farm Safety Week is organised by the Farm Safety Foundation, aka Yellow Wellies. An independent charity, the foundation works hard to help farmers and growers build safer working practices and reduce unecessary risk-taking across the industry.
As well as Farm Safety Week, the foundation also organises the annual Mind Your Head campaign, which seeks to raise awareness of the mental health issues farmers and growers face in their jobs.
