Problems

1) Getting Farmers Off Farm

Solutions:

Take the event to them. We would target delivering 4 sessions over 8 weeks

Groups of 8-12 attendees, offering 2-3 hours education and coaching at a local venue (farmhouse, school, hall.

2) Getting Blokes to Health Events

Solutions:

Food can help...... make sure there is good food on offer

Recruit a couple of "community champions" to do some recruiting.

Build on the positive feedback from other groups to get the guys there
