DEPRESSION?
MENTAL HEALTH?

or just need someone to talk to?

The SkillZone team is dedicated to providing top-notch first aid training to those who may be struggling with mental health issues such as depression. With experienced trainers and a comprehensive curriculum, The SkillZone is committed to helping you and your team become empowered to make a difference.

We all need a little time, every now and then, even if it’s to reflect or just to let off steam.  It’s great if you can do this with a partner or a friend, sometimes even with a stranger!


Try to talk over your worries with a cuppa, somewhere you are comfortable and won’t be interrupted.  What you have to say is important and how you feel is more important.
