We also use information to educate the public about depression in order to increase understanding and remove the stigma associated with the illness. We deliver programmes that reduce the risk of people becoming depressed and deliver these programmes into communities, schools and other settings. We also carry out research into depression and use the evidence produced to improve our services. We support families, carers and friends of those with depression through our services and information. Depression currently affects one in four of us in Northern Ireland. As depression is implicated in 75% of suicides and is an illness which gets worse if not diagnosed and treated promptly, our aim is primarily to save lives and then to create a society where no-one feels too ashamed to ask for help with their depression and where those with depression can find the help they need to get better, without having to wait to see a specialist. We also want to see good mental health promoted as a matter of course to everyone as a basic human right. Our current services comprise • Self-help support groups • Helpline • Living Life to the Full workshops • Mood Matters depression awareness training • Public Information/Community Outreach programme, including Hope4HealthRoadshows • Comprehensive range of free information titles and publications on depression • Volunteer recruitment and training • Fundraising
