21/07/2025: shellfish report, rural wellbeing, chicken welfare

Shellfish report, rural wellbeing charity, chicken welfare rules change.

The final report into the devastating mass deaths of shellfish along the north east coast says the incident was 'catastrophic' to the industry. We speak to one of the fishers affected.

Throughout this week we're going to be looking at into health, mental health and wellbeing in rural Britain. Today we go to the Peak District to meet a group of women farmers who've set up their own support group.

And new rules come in tomorrow allowing poultry farmers to legally pick up birds under a certain weight by their two legs when catching them. Not everyone's happy.

Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Sally Challoner.
