Education and Support for carers
Workshop and information sessions for families, friends, supporters and kin (carers) to learn more about BPD.
Workshops for families, friends and carers
Spectrum offers a variety of workshops and information sessions for carers supporting a person with (or a suspected diagnosis of) BPD. They are co-facilitated by a lived experience carer and a clinician.
These workshops and sessions provide an opportunity to learn more about BPD, find out how to best support the person you care about whilst still caring for yourselves, and a chance to explore commonly asked questions. The groups explore educational and practical approaches to learning new skills within a supportive environment amongst other carers.
