Take 13 guys with nothing to lose except their clothing, add a series of messages designed to promote mental wellbeing within the agricultural and rural community and there you have it; ‘Naked Truths’, the first and probably the only Bateman calendar of its kind.
However, behind the smiles there’s a serious message. Working in agriculture and the countryside is usually a good way of life but it is a demanding and stressful occupation. So, it’s not surprising that many people involved with agriculture can feel isolated, depressed or unable to cope as well as normal.
Teaming up with YANA (You Are Not Alone), Bateman are hoping to raise awareness and at the same time help the charity. The proceeds going towards funding the charity’s vital work - providing confidential support and funded counselling, building understanding of mental health, investing in mental health first aid training and suicide prevention.
THE GREAT WORK THAT YANA DO:
YANA provides confidential support. A call to the helpline can result in fast track access to funded counselling with professional counsellors who understand rural life.
YANA builds understanding of mental health, providing the support and confidence to start conversations to help those who are in need.
YANA invests in Mental Health First Aid training in order to get MH first aiders into every sector of the industry.
YANA runs a national campaign on Suicide Prevention - 'Seven Tractor Facts to Save a Life'.
