Southland farmer Jason Herrick says it's important for people to reach out and ask for help. Herrick, who is an AgProud NZ member, said: "If you think you're okay, ask someone else if they are okay." Ask how you can helpPeople will want support at different times or in different ways, so ask how you can help. It's OK to ask for help, and a chat with a trusted friend or colleague may be just what you need. Talk to your local Rural Support Trust for the next one in your area (0800 RURAL HELP) or www.rural-support.org.nz.
