Family and Friends Support Group

Our family and friends support groups are free and are open to anyone who is a family member, friend, loved one or carer of someone with bipolar or who is pre-diagnosis.

The format of the meetings vary, but you will have the opportunity to introduce yourself, say how you are feeling and may listen to an invited speaker. The groups are organised and facilitated by volunteers and staff members who are affected by bipolar in some way.

The family and friends support group is available to anyone affected by bipolar indirectly. If you would like to join the family and friends online (Zoom) support meeting on the first Friday of the month at (2pm-3pm), please book a free ticket through this page (below). You will receive the link via email and a reminder email before the meeting. 

Anyone over 18 is welcome. If you're 16 or 17, please bring a parent or guardian.

We look forward to seeing you.
