News > SANE and Tesco help beat depression

Created: 2002-02-03 12:43:00

In an exciting new venture Tesco has joined forces with SANE to produce a free advice booklet on beating depression entitled 'Going Out of Your Mind' The booklet, which is now available in all Tesco pharmacies nation-wide, offers information and support to anyone worried that they, or someone they know, may be suffering from depression � along with practical advice on how to overcome this illness.

Commenting on the initiative, Marjorie Wallace, SANE’s Chief Executive says: 
"if only people knew more about depression and could accept it as an illness which can be treated, they could find medications and therapies that work for them." Together, SANE and Tesco are determined to communicate the message that ‘depression can strike at any age and any time and is recognised by medical professionals as an illness – not a sign of weakness’. 

To get a copy of the ‘Going out of your Mind’ booklet call in to your local Tesco Pharmacy [open Mon-Fri 9.00am-10.00pm and Sat & Sun from 10.00am-4.00pm] or call SANELINE on 0845 767 8000.
