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.

Yesterday I had a moment that would normally have ended in tears for both my daughter and myself. Instead, I utilised what I had learnt, listened without judgement and came from a place of acceptance. Having support, guidance and education is the key to living with this challenging disorder.
