A NEW art installation has appeared near Cardross in the name of mental health.

Loch Lomond Young Farmers Club made the bale art near Geilston Farm to encourage those passing by to speak up about how they're doing.

It is part of the SAYFC's (Scottish Association of Young Farmers Clubs) "Are Ewe Okay?" campaign.

Loch Lomond chairperson Amy Allan told the Advertiser: "SAYFC Young Farmers clubs throughout Scotland who have been creating wonderful bale art with a #keeptalking theme to brighten up the fields.

"Loch Lomond Young Farmers Club wanted to spread awareness and encourage everyone to speak up about their mental health, in recognition of SAYFC ‘Are Ewe Okay?’ campaign.

"This year SAYFC have as well teamed up with Galbraith and RSABI to spread awareness of #keeptalking and we are grateful as a club to be able to spread that message and support the cause.

"SAYFC hope to raise awareness of the amazing work RSABI carry out, and the service they provide within the agricultural community.

"Being present and available to talk is one of the best things we can do for those going through tough times. We hope our display gets the message across."

A winner of the best bale art will be chosen next month at Murrayfield.
