Farm Safety, Health and Wellbeing Projects 2024 Proposals

This open call for project proposals is one of a series of initiatives being implemented by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine in helping to improve the safety, health and wellbeing of Irish farmers and their families.

The Department is inviting applications from groups and organisations that have the capability and vision, to develop and deliver projects which address farm safety, health and wellbeing challenges on Irish farms. These projects will support and promote best practice and bring about behavioural change to minimise the risks to the safety, health, and wellbeing of everyone on farms, including farmers, workers, farm families and visitors.

The projects will be funded from the Department of Agriculture, Food, and the Marine’s dedicated farm safety budget. Successful projects under this call should cover one or more of the following themes:

• Farm safety

• Farmers physical health

• Farmer mental health and wellbeing.
