Get involved in research if you live with bipolar
Get involved in research if you support someone living with bipolar
Our aims
We aim to provide opportunities for as many people whose lives are affected by bipolar as possible to get involved in research.
How you can get involved
You can get involved in research by becoming a participant in a study. Or you can give researchers advice based on your own lived experience of living with bipolar, or supporting someone with bipolar.
Researchers and the organisations which fund research now understand that it is extremely important that, at all stages of research into mental illness, the work is informed by advice from those who have relevant lived experience.
Our commitment
As a research team, we make sure that every single research projects we partner with or help to recruit for meets all necessary ethical guidelines, and is consistent with Bipolar UK research values.
We strive to ensure that payment is available for people who share their expertise. Depending on the funding that’s available this is not always possible.
