Thank you for taking the time to read this page. 

My reason for doing this challenge is for a very personal reason. 

In early 2023 our mum was diagnosed with Bipolar. We have been on a rollercoaster since then. Understanding the illness and how we can support her, whilst standing in the wake of some very extreme behaviours. 

Whilst medical staff helped and supported Mum, we turned to Bipolar UK. We have used the Bipolar UK services a lot over the last year; support calls, support groups and the e-community. We wanted to raise awareness of the condition and fundraise so they can continue to support people and carers with their invaluable support.
