Advocating for farm safety: Farm safety live demo arena

Farm safety is a key concern for FBD Insurance, and they are partnering with FRS, the HSA and the Tullamore Show committee again this year in bringing the Farm Safety Live demo arena back to the show this year.

Farming is a demanding and sometimes hazardous profession, and FBD Insurance is committed to helping farmers stay safe.

The demo arena will feature live demonstrations and practical advice on farm safety, aiming to educate and inform attendees on how to reduce risks and protect themselves and their families.
