A training day for Anglesey farmers on the use of mobile phones in a bid to help them quickly report suspicious happenings on their farms has been organised by the Farmers’ Union of Wales county branch.
Arranged in conjunction with a Farm Watch initiative, the two courses for FUW members will take place at Llangefni fire station's community at 2pm and 7.30pm on Thursday February 17.
"It is very important that farmers know how to fully use a mobile phone in conjunction with a Farm Watch initiative where the art of texting will be paramount," said FUW's Anglesey county executive officer Heidi Williams.
"Farmers need to step up a gear when it comes to using a mobile phone and I know that many of our members only know the basics such as making and receiving phone calls."
The training is free and any members will need to register beforehand. For further information contact Heidi Williams on 01248 750250.
