BATLEY SELF HELP DEPRESSION GROUP
TRAINING LAUNCH
(We have been pleased with the success and positive feedback from our training scheme. Our aim is to provide training to organisations, employees and individuals in an effort to increase awareness and understanding of depression. We have now run various courses, all centred around the theme of depression. For instance our first course, "What is depression?" gave an overview of what depression is, how to recognise the signs and what treatments are available.)
