Bipolar Scotland is the national charity supporting people with bipolar, their families and friends. Guided by lived experience - and with peer support and self-management at our core - we provide connection, resources and tools so that no one has to struggle alone.

Story

Established on the 8th December 1992, we are Scotland’s only ‘bipolar-specific’ organisation and have 25 years’ experience of minimising the impact of bipolar through our Self-Management Training (SMT) courses and Self-Help Support Groups. We currently have 500 members and 48 individuals accessed our Self-Management Training programmes in 2017/18 (four courses of 12 learners - a 50% increase on 2016/17). In the same period, 999 unique individuals[1] accessed our Self-Help Support Groups.
