Prince William Named Patron of We Are Farming Minds, Advocates for Rural Mental Health

During a visit to Folly Farm in Somerset, the Prince of Wales highlighted mental health challenges in farming and announced his role as patron of the charity.

Prince William officially became the patron of We Are Farming Minds, a charity supporting farmers' mental health through services like counseling and a 24-hour helpline.
At Folly Farm, he met with young farmers to discuss the stigma, isolation, and pressures impacting mental health in the farming community.
The visit included filming for upcoming episodes of Amazon Prime's Clarkson’s Farm and BBC’s Countryfile, aiming to amplify awareness of rural mental health issues.
Prince George, a fan of Clarkson’s Farm, asked his father to remind star Kaleb Cooper to 'mind his language,' adding a lighthearted moment to the engagement.
Prince William emphasized the importance of seeking help and taking breaks to manage mental health challenges, reinforcing his commitment to destigmatizing the issue.
