Episode Details

Clare farmers will have an opportunity to have their health assessed for free today. The Irish Farmers Association is hosting a free Farmer Health Check in the Clare Marts from 10:30am. Funded by the Department of Agriculture, the mobile service will focus on areas like heart disease risk, early detection of diabetes, mental health and wellbeing, and will provide crucial information on prostate and skin cancer. Feakle-based chairperson of the Clare branch of the IFA, Stephen Walsh, says it's a great chance to eliminate the possibility of any issues.
