Our Support Group Evaluation Report 2026

Our latest Support Group Evaluation Report explores the impact of peer support groups across Bipolar Scotland.

Bipolar Scotland Manifesto 2026

People living with bipolar experience one of the longest diagnosis delays of any mental health condition in Scotland.

Too often, bipolar is misunderstood and misdiagnosed, leaving people to struggle for years without the right support.

This is our call to transform Bipolar support in Scotland.

The Power of Peer Support: Our Peers Together Impact Report 2025

We’re proud to share our final impact report for Peers Together, a one-to-one peer support service for people living long-term with bipolar.

The service ran from January 2023 to April 2025 and provided over 846 hours of support to 80 people across 25 areas in Scotland. It was designed for people who weren’t newly diagnosed, but who were still looking for support, understanding, and hope.

Physical Health and Bipolar: A Lived Experience Report Highlighting Health Inequalities for People with Bipolar in Scotland 2025

People with bipolar told us loud and clear: physical health matters. In our new national survey, 96% said their physical health is a concern.

Too many said their symptoms are dismissed or blamed on bipolar, and serious issues are missed. But we also heard powerful examples of what good care looks like: professionals who listen, services that work together and people treated as whole human beings. That care already exists in Scotland. Now it needs to become the norm.
