We at @tilly_trailer are passionate about trailer safety. We know first hand the suffering inflicted by on farm cost-cutting exercises. #HeadtoTow #CornCart21

Don't just focus on farm deaths. HSE's pre-Xmas prosecution of a workshop foreman who caused life-changing injuries is relevant to the new @FSP_England #FarmSafety Transport campaign. Anyone on farms is vulnerable - to prosecution as well as injury! hse.gov.uk/press/2018/decemb…

An interesting topic and one that the @DevonYFC will be debating at @DevonCountyShow on Friday 18 May at 10.30 in the YFC Marquee #Farmsafety teapawt.net/agri_hub/status/989826…
Replying to @unitetheunion
@unitetheunion calls for @H_S_E to tighten up rules and inspections to improve #farm #safety. Should tractors have MOTs? How can we make farms safer - is red tape the answer or do we need to change established mindsets? @yellowwelliesuk ow.ly/FueU30jI2E8
