Workplace Wisdom – Heads Up to Depression

Aug 14, 2014 | TC blog

The tragic death of Robin Williams shocked and saddened the whole world and has led to a lot of discussion about depression; some of this has been informative and balanced, some not so much!

Hopefully we can begin to recognise the strength of character that allowed this great actor to leave us such an impressive body of work, despite battling against his illness.

Here at Thomson Cooper our involvement with Healthy Working Lives provides a great platform for raising awareness of this illness and we promote a number of websites that can offer more information and support. Please feel free to share these with friends and colleagues.
