RFS launch video to raise awareness of mental health in forestry

  • September 10, 2025

The Royal Forestry Society shared the Every Interaction Matters short animation on World Suicide Prevention Day, working in partnership with Confor, FISA, Forestry Contracting Association, the Institute of Chartered Foresters, and kindly funded by the Forestry Commission.

Most people working in forestry know someone who has been severely affected by issues surrounding mental health. It’s not always the big things. Sometimes it’s the tone. The pressure. The silence.

So before the next job, the next deadline, the next demand…check in. Check your tone.
