Probus Club Forums
Australian Rotary Health can provide a speaker program to Probus Club meetings on the subject of "Coping with Depression and other Mental Illnesses".
In the belief that Depression and Mental Illness have a significant personal impact affecting one-in-five of all of us, and in senior years, these problems are magnified when so many lose wives, husbands and partners. As a result, families, and the wider community also experience the consequences of the resulting depression of our family members and friends.

♦ The program includes two speakers, a clinician and a consumer or carer to talk of personal and professional experiences;

♦ Australian Rotary Health can provide the costs of morning tea for those present on the day; and
