Who We Serve

OUR COMMUNITIES

We're Here for You

Whether you’re farming the land, working offshore, supporting family from home, or looking to connect with your community — there’s a place for you here.

Farmers and Agricultural Workers

Whether you're managing a family farm, working the land as part of a team, or carrying the weight of a difficult season, we understand the unique pressures of agricultural life. We're here with practical support, peer connection, and a listening ear -- whenever you need it.

“Running a farm can be overwhelming, especially when everything feels like it depends on you. St Katharine Rural Connect gave us more than information -- they gave us support we could actually use, and people who understood the pressures we were under. It made us feel less alone.”
— James, dairy farmer near Huntly

Offshore, Rotational, and Remote Workers

Working away from home for long stretches can take its toll -- on you and on the people who matter most. Whether you're on a rig, at sea, or on rotation, we offer support that fits around your schedule and understands the realities of your working life.

“When you work away for long periods, it can feel like you're disconnected from everything at home. Having access to support that understood our lifestyle made a real difference for me and my family. It reminded us that we still had a community behind us.”
— Craig, offshore engineer, North Sea

Family Members

If your partner, parent, or family member works away or runs a farm, you know what it's like to carry things on your own. We're here for spouses, children, and loved ones -- with resources, encouragement, and people who truly understand.

“As the spouse of a rotational worker, I often felt like I was carrying things on my own. Through St Katharine Rural Connect, I found resources, encouragement, and people who truly understood the strain that comes with this kind of life.”
— Laura, spouse of an offshore worker

“The events and programs have created a stronger sense of connection in our area. People are meeting, talking, and supporting one another in ways that weren't happening before. It feels like something positive and lasting is being built.”
— Helen, community member, rural Aberdeenshire
