Embrace FARM

Embrace FARM is a not-for-profit organization based in Ireland dedicated to supporting farm families impacted by sudden death or serious injury. Established in 2017, Embrace FARM is the first organization of its kind to provide such support within the farming community in Ireland. The organization is governed by a voluntary Board of Directors composed of representatives from bereaved families, individuals who have experienced farm-related injuries, and professionals in the agricultural sector. Embrace FARM offers various programs and services to assist farm families facing these tragedies. This includes a network of support, fundraising efforts, and networking events tailored to the specific needs of the farming community. The organization also holds an annual ecumenical service in Abbyleix each June to remember those who have lost their lives in farm accidents and provide solace to survivors and their loved ones. Embrace FARM distinguishes itself through its unique focus on the agricultural community. The organization's deep understanding of the specific challenges faced by farm families allows it to provide targeted and sensitive support. Furthermore, Embrace FARM's commitment to raising awareness within the agri-sector helps to reduce the stigma surrounding farm accidents and encourages open conversations about safety and support.
