Fit Farmers App Launched in Leitrim with Health and Safety Resources

On 27 August the Leitrim County Council unveiled a new Fit Farmers app aimed at providing health and wellbeing support to farmers and rural residents across the county. The digital platform is designed to offer resources and guidance on physical fitness, mental health, and general wellness, recognising that maintaining personal health is as vital to a farm’s success as the care of the land itself. The launch event took place in Drumshanbo, where council officials highlighted the app’s potential to help rural communities manage the unique stresses of agricultural life. While the app’s full range of features is still being rolled out, early users report that it includes exercise routines, nutrition tips, and links to local health services. The council has positioned the initiative as part of a broader effort to promote sustainable living and resilience among Leitrim’s farming community. The Fit Farmers app is now available for download on both iOS and Android devices, and the council encourages all interested parties to explore its offerings. For more details see the Leitrim County Council announcement.
