"We work to relieve and to prevent this treatable condition by providing information and support services."


Depression Alliance is delighted to launch "Daring to Implement", a new report highlighting the best examples of services commissioned for people with depression across the country.
Download or ask for a copy of the report to be sent to you by e-mailing info@depressionalliance.org with your name and address.
In an emergency it is possible to visit your local Accident and Emergency department and ask to see the duty psychiatrist. NHS Direct (0845 46 47) can also provide you with medical advice at any time of the day or night. Samaritans (08457 909090) provide 24 hour emotional support and Saneline (0845 767 8000) can provide information and crisis support. Saneline operates between 1pm to 11pm every day.
It is worth checking to see if the local Community Mental Health Team (CMHT) can provide a crisis support team contact.
