Description
In this week’s episode of Over The Farm Gate, news and business reporter Hannah Binns asks three farm safety champions what needs to be done to tackle the industry's poor safety record. It comes as new data from the Health and Safety Executive found 25 people killed on farms in Great Britain in 2021/22, including three members of the public. We also discuss the 'pester power' of children and how they can play a pivotal role in helping improve safety on farms.
