Kevin stated, "We were very impressed with the dedication and commitment of the Scottish Association for Mental Health team in Montrose, and were very pleased to hear of their work throughout Angus. It was also helpful to hear of the many concerns of the staff and the people with poor mental health they provide a service to. In particular it was concerning to hear of how debt, money problems and job insecurity were often a cause of poor mental health. Clearly SAMH deserves the fullest of support in its work in Angus and throughout Scotland."
