Farming Today This Week: Rural Health

Looking at rural health: Charlotte Smith meets villagers in rural Wiltshire who have raised money to build a GP surgery in the village hall. It's one of many ways in which people in more remote areas are working for better access to health services.
We also hear about a national charity helping communities to buy and operate defibrillators, which could save a life in the case of cardiac arrest, when a helicopter or ambulance could be several minutes away. And a helpline specifically established for farmers suffering mental health problems.
And Mark Smalley has been to a care farm in Dorset where old farmers can go for respite care. After a lifetime in agriculture, it can be more therapeutic than a life indoors at a day centre or care home.
