Client services have been identified in direct relation to client needs. Our services are accessible, confidential, supportive, appropriate, professional and free to any adult, male or female, who is currently, or has previously experienced domestic abuse. With assistance and ongoing support, added to the raft of services Pathways has at its disposal, people can begin to recognise abusive behaviours and eventually, move on with their lives. This work is long term, sadly there is no ‘quick fix’, it is about steadily building the client’s self esteem and confidence and sharing the knowledge to assist them to make informed choices about their future.

Survivors of Depression in Transition (SODIT)

Office 27
Woodbourn Business Centre
Jessell Street
Sheffield
South Yorkshire
S9 3HY

0114 242 1700
[email protected]


We are a support group for women who experience depression and mental health illness. SODIT is all about giving women a chance to move on from their illness or period in life which has been very straining on family life and personal life. We have seen many women now who have managed to move on from the group towards a happy and fulfilling life. This is at the heart of what we do.

Filling the gaps in statutory services is where SODIT comes into play, such as when people are left after therapy finishes or when they are discharged from hospital. One of the main problems is the waiting lists for mental health services which can be still up to 18 months for support.

• Support Group - Tuesdays 12:30pm-2:30pm
• Evening Group - Thursdays 6:00pm-7:30pm
• Mental health Training/consultancy
• Mental health Conference
• Member’s library
• IT support internet access
• Drop in Centre
• Social Events
