Join our campaign

Your support is vital. Please add your voice to ours to put depression where it should be - at the top of the mental health agenda. You can do this by holding awareness-raising or fundraising events.

1. Fundraising can be fun too - from coffee mornings to karaoke nights, jumble sales to talkathons - and we’re here to help you every step of the way. For further information on holding your own event please email us.

2. Get involved with Depression Awareness Week™. Click here to learn about the current and past activities of Depression Awareness Week™.

3. Become a case study - Would you be interested in becoming a media case study for Depression Alliance? Existing media case studies have collaborated with the BBC on radio broadcasts, been interviewed on GMTV and ITN News, and have had their stories featured in the printed press, from The Guardian to The Sun.

The work of our media case studies - volunteers who work on behalf of Depression Alliance by sharing their experiences of depression with journalists - is crucial in enabling Depression Alliance to achieve its aim of showing the general public the realities of living with depression.

It is important for us, in raising greater awareness of depression, to know as much as possible about our case studies, so that we can match people to the needs of journalists. Therefore, prior to becoming a case study, we would need you to fill in a questionnaire, however, all information given is treated in the strictest of confidence.

Whilst we do already have a number of media case studies, we really need more. If you think you would be interested in becoming a media case study, please e-mail casestudies@depressionalliance.org.
