Speak to our Peer Support Line

0333 323 3880

Feeling worried or anxious? Got a question? We're here to give practical information, advice and support by phone and email.

Call us, leave a message and we'll call you back. Or email us at [email protected]

We can talk through any issues that are on your mind and share our own experiences as people also affected by bipolar. We're here to help you find a way forward.

Bipolar UK does not provide crisis support

If you are in crisis, we've put together a list of resources to turn to for crisis help

With an emphasis on self-management, the Peer Support Line provides:

advice on how to support a loved one
information on how to manage your bipolar
coping strategies to stay well
links to useful support services

'I was called as part of your Peer Support Line service, and I want to express my thanks to the person I spoke to. They were brilliant in that they listened and shared their experience with me openly and honestly. In contrast to other services I’ve accessed, they helped solidify my position of wanting to thrive and achieve with Bipolar (1) rather than be depressed and defined negatively by it.' PT

Book a call

Our Peer Support Line offers a call-back service.

You can book a call with one of our friendly team by calling 0333 323 3880 and leaving a message or by emailing the team at [email protected]

Please note: the Peer Support Line is open to UK phone numbers only. You must be based in the UK to access this service. Even if you have a UK number, we are unable to speak to you if you're outside the UK at the time of the call.

Get support via email

If you'd like to talk over email you can contact us at [email protected] with any questions, concerns or information you need. We aim to respond within three working days, although during holidays or busier periods it may take slightly longer. Thank you for your patience.
