Bipolar UK collaborated with the National Centre for Mental Health (NCMH) at Cardiff University to organise a series of self-management webinars.

In recent weeks we were delighted to pilot a bite-sized version of their award winning Bipolar Education Programme Cymru (BEPC), which is a group psycho-education programme that aims to improve the quality of life for people with bipolar disorder.

These sessions were offered free of charge and last about an hour 

Session one: What is bipolar?

• What causes bipolar?
• Myths and misconceptions
• Benefits of self-management – interview with BEPC participant
• Impact of COVID-19 crisis and lockdown – practical tips 

If you have any questions about the course or materials please contact [email protected]
