get involved

Depression affects someone in every family and social circle at some time in their life, yet most people don’t feel comfortable talking about depression and they often refuse to accept that it is a serious illness. We need people to get involved with the work of Aware Defeat Depression to change people’s attitudes to depression and to make it possible for everyone with this crippling illness to get better. If you can spare some time to campaign for us, volunteer for us or fundraise for us you will be making life worth living again for thousands of people in Northern Ireland with depression. If you would like to share your ideas and inspiration with us by sending us pictures and stories we will put them on the website to encourage other people to get involved with us too. Please contact Alison@aware-ni.org and do your bit for the one in four with depression!
