The farmer and the broom


John Harper, an inspiring farmer who has recovered from depression, has come forward with his story. After his recovery, John started promoting awareness about the importance of reducing stress and anxiety in times of severe strain or pressure. In partnership with YWCA NSW, John established a self-help program under the name of "Mate Helping Mate".
The question is raised: what are the most important things we can do as a community for those in rural areas suffering from depression in tough economic and environmental times?
