❤️MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS WEEK which starts today is about taking action to support good mental health for yourself, for someone else , for all of us❤️

❤️It is important to prioritise good mental health not just this week but every day & being there for each other can help❤️

❤️A voice at the end of the phone of someone happy to listen - remember dispensary are always happy to do just that (everyone knows Bridget likes chewing the cud!😂🤣)❤️

❤️Talking things over with someone you can trust takes alot of courage but just talking things through can feel like a relief and make us feel less alone❤️

❤️Make time for friends whether that be on the phone or popping round for a cup of tea. It could be your vet or vet tech having a coffee and cake at the end of a TB test or visit . We take time to talk to one another about the days events or if we have something on our mind❤️

❤️Take time away from the farm and do something you enjoy. A walk with the dog, an agriculture show, an evening in the pub with friends or a George Farm Vets social event - a change of scene is good for all of us❤️

❤️Most of all be kind to yourself and remember you can only do your best…
it is ‘ok to not be ok’ xx❤️

From above, it’s clear to see the precision, teamwork and long hours that go into every clamp.
A smooth operation built on planning, skill and a serious commitment to animal nutrition. High quality forage will make all the difference in the months ahead. 🌾

Keep up the hard work, and don’t forget we’re on hand if you need us during the busy season 🐄

Bluetongue can cause production losses (infertility, milk drop, abortions) as well as welfare concerns, with vaccination helping to mitigate these risks.

For those of you who might not need a whole bottle of bluetongue vaccine, we are carrying out a bottle split this year.
If you would like to purchase less than 100 doses of vaccine, please fill out the form linked on our story/in our bluetongue story highlight.

The bottle splitting dates are:
- Thursday 14th May
- Thursday 4th June
- Thursday 25th June

All vaccine dispensed with come with a dispensing fee. We will do our best to dispense all doses out of a bottle so that you are only paying for the exact number of doses needed, however this may not always be possible.

Our newsletter will be released shortly, highlighting the current status of Bluetongue in the UK. If you have any queries please call the practice on 01666 823035.

💜We had such a lovely time on Friday at our coffee morning held at Wiltshire Wild Sauna by kind permission of Zoe and Laura.

The weather was perfect so we could all sit outside and enjoy the warm April sunshine in a glorious spot in the Wiltshire countryside. It was lovely to see everyone catching up, putting the world to rights and having a laugh over a cup of tea, sausage roll & cake.

For those that wanted to, this morning also involved a go in the sauna - a first time for some followed by a cold dip if anyone wanted to. A chance to kick off wellies , enjoy a bit of “me time”, press the pause button to relax and recharge for 10 minutes or an hour.

Everyone loved it and felt ready for the day ahead - a glimpse into the health benefits that taking a sauna offers. Our heartfelt thanks go to Zoe & Laura @ Wiltshire Wild Sauna for so generously donating the sauna sessions to the ladies who came along to George Farm Vets coffee morning.

Our thanks also go to Kath @ HIPRA for her continued support of George Farm Vet meetings & events💜

🇬🇧🇬🇧🐄🐮From 23 to 30th April Great British Beef Week (GBBW) shines a light on the vital role of farm shops and local butchers in bringing naturally delicious British beef to tables across the UK.
Created by Ladies in Beef, in partnership with AHDB, the nationwide campaign champions the local supply chain behind British beef – from the farmers who produce it, to the butchers, farm shops and retailers who supply it.
The focus is on quality, provenance and the people who help ensure naturally delicious British beef stays on our plates.
Jilly Greed, Devon beef farmer and co-founder of the Ladies in Beef group, said:
“It’s all about championing our trusted local supply chains, the family farms, farm shops and butchers that work together to deliver top-quality British beef to communities.
“When people buy local, they’re supporting British farmers who care deeply about quality and the environment.”
 
Let us all get together to support our local beef farmers and remember to buy British 🐄🐮🇬🇧🇬🇧

* The Farm Safety Foundation found that 95% of UK farmers under the age of 40, rank poor mental health as one of the biggest hidden problems facing the industry today.

* RABI’s Big Farming Survey found that ‘almost one in five in the farming community (19%) report that they know someone who has attempted to take their own life.’

* A 2018 Farmers Weekly survey of more than 700 farmers found that the average working week was 65 hours compared to a national average of 37.5 hours. 68% felt they did not get enough sleep  and 40% wanted help balancing work and time off.

❤️Please remember that it is ok to not be ok. There is always someone to talk to and that is only too willing to listen ❤️❤️❤️. It can be a friend,neighbour,your vet,dispensary or anyone you feel comfortable talking to. Pick up the phone , chat face to face on farm or pop round for a cup of tea. There are lots of organisations who have phone lines with someone on the end of the phone who can help☎️. You are not alone ❤️.
