GATEPOST... when you need someone to talk to
0300 111 4166
Another letter from the bank... The tractor’s broken down again... You can’t see the kitchen table for forms waiting to be filled in... You have a family business but the family can’t agree on how to run it... Your partner is looking worried but won’t say why... You’re worried about your health or someone else's... You’re stuck on your own at the back of beyond and never see anyone...
If any of this sounds familiar you might find it helpful to talk things through with someone who understands the sort of problems you’re facing.
GATEPOST is the first listening and support service dedicated to the farming and land-based community in Scotland.
It’s a confidential telephone helpline and our trained staff are available from 9-5, Monday to Friday.
Ring us if you need to talk through what’s on your mind. We can’t advise you what to do, but we can help you as you look at the options. GATEPOST is a confidential service; you don’t have to give your name if you don’t want to, and what you say will go no further. If you need specialist support, including help with financial, business, health or family issues, we can point you in the right direction.
We know how hard it is to ask for help. But GATEPOST has been set up in response to a growing number of calls to RSABI from people doing just that, and finding that there is a way forward when someone is there to listen.
Take control of your problems before they take control of you.
Call us on 0300 111 4166.
Calls cost the same as standard calls to 01 and 02 numbers from land lines and mobiles.
If you prefer to e-mail, you can write to gatepost@rsabi.org.uk. Again, your message will be received confidentially.
