Listen to Your Wife

-

‘Save a life, listen to your wife’ – that’s the message of a recently launched health and safety movement for rural women. Safer Farms has partnered with Australia’s Alex Thomas to bring The #PlantASeed­ForSafety Project across the ditch.

The #PlantASeed­ForSafety Project profiles women from all parts of rural industries and communitie­s who are making positive and practical improvemen­ts to the health, safety and wellbeing of those around them. From farm owners, shepherds, wives and partners, to nurses, doctors, teachers and even the local barista – every person living rurally has an impact on their community.

The project aims to raise the voices of rural women and boost their confidence in their ability to influence change and to inspire others to make safer, healthier choices.

It is hoped the more women who take part, the bigger of an impact this project will have on saving lives.
