Open Studies Testimonial

“I am grateful for the care and support that I have received from South London and Maudsley. I felt that by participating in research it would be a way to give something back and help other people with my condition. This was particularly important to me as I am unable to work and it is one way that I feel that I can make a positive contribution and do something of value."

Francis
