Fonterra is committed to caring for rural communities by improving access to wellbeing and resilience services for farming families.

Along with our partnership with the Rural Support Trust, Fonterra is pleased to support Surfing for Farmers this season. The work both Rural Support Trust and Surfing for Farmers does in Community aligns to our purpose of Doing Good Together in the community to care for people, the environment, and our Co-op for generations.

Rural Support Trust continues to be a community partner, and collectively we will reach more people in communities by encouraging them to get off farm and support their wellbeing with a bit of sun, surf, & a good yarn.

Ballance has been investing in rural health initiatives for many years including the Surfing for Farmers programme since it started in Gisborne in 2018.

As an organisation they are proud to be part of a great initiative that gives farmers an opportunity to step away from what can be an all-consuming business, get fresh air, exercise and interact with other farmers, rural families and industry professionals.

As New Zealand’s only specialist food and agribusiness bank, we’re committed to working alongside the country’s farmers and growers to strengthen rural communities.

Mental health is one of the key challenges facing these communities and in recent years we’ve teamed up with our Client Council network and other partners to develop a number of initiatives to help address this issue.

We’ve been involved with Surfing for Farmers since its inception and are very proud to support the work they’re doing to reduce farmer stress and improve well-being. With Surfing for Farmers going from strength to strength in recent seasons, many of our employees are now involved with the programme in their local area and we’re expecting even more of our team to participate this summer.
