(In Person) All-Ages Group -Personal journey

This month, we will be joined online by Struan Logan.

Stuart is a comedian who returned to stand-up after a five-year hiatus, partially due to being diagnosed with Bipolar Type-1. Approaching this as someone who hasn't been affected by Bipolar throughout his adult life has meant it seems rife for unfertilised comedy ground. Describing material and reactions that are intended to normalise to the public, Struan brings a presentation to Bipolar Edinburgh to get an advanced screening.

This is a hybrid meeting, allowing attendees to join us at the Edinburgh Training & Conference Venue, 16 St. Mary's Street, Edinburgh EH1 1SU or online via Zoom. The meeting is for everyone affected by bipolar, including family, friends, and carers.

The meeting provides a safe, confidential space to access peer support and learn new ways of managing bipolar, including sharing our personal experiences. We usually have either a speaker or a group discussion at the beginning of the meeting on a topic related to bipolar, followed by a chat over a hot drink and biscuits. The meeting finishes at 8.45 pm.

Please watch our Comfort Agreement, which is in place to ensure everyone has a safe, comfortable space to share personal experiences.

NB: Please do not attend the venue if you have symptoms of COVID-19.
