Purpose & Structure

Charitable Purpose

United Ministries responds to the need for practical help to the rural farming community where suicides have increased in number due to great stress that has led to this. United Ministries International is aware of a number of organisations who offer stress seminars, lobby government, or help lines which usually are for rural people to talk to other people about their situation. However, very little practical help is provided in most cases. United Ministries International was established to bridge this gap, to provide practical help to rural farmers in stressful situations. Practical help involves going to speak to the affected families and offering help such as taking over the running of the farm; offering technical farming and financial management advice for free. This involves also carrying along some unemployed people to enable them gain practical experience which could help them obtain employment. All this so far is being paid for by a small group within the trust.
