Penrith Support Group

Groups are free to attend and are open to all individuals affected by bipolar including those with a diagnosis, those pre-diagnosis, their family members, friends and carers. You don't need a referral and you don't have to let anyone know you're coming - just turn up!

Bipolar support groups offer:

• Regular (usually monthly) meetings
• Friendly, confidential and accepting environment
• Peer support through group discussion
• Useful information
• Social activities
• Guidance on managing mood swings

"Although I have never attended a group meeting, my husband does and it makes all the difference to our lives"

At a support group you can:

• Join in and gain more confidence
• Get to know yourself better
• Make new friends
• Learn to manage mood swings
• Get practical advice

If you are feeling isolated or need help for yourself or for someone else, then come and be part of a Bipolar UK support group.
