We got to speak with Rural Support Trust Taranaki, an incredible organisation assisting and supporting the rural communities within the Taranaki region. Their services encompass mental health, financial strategies, employer/employee support, and animal welfare, ensuring the resilience of their rural communities. They stand alongside farmers and farm workers supporting them in the face of adversity assisting them in all areas of hardships, whether it’s finding workers to help farmers with the load, financial strategies with the banking system, mental wellbeing and emotional support. In these challenging times there’s never been more of a need to come together as a rural community.
