Job description

Bipolar UK are seeking a brilliant trainer to enable us to turn knowledge into Impact.

About Bipolar UK

Bipolar UK is the only national charity dedicated to supporting people affected by bipolar — including individuals, carers, families and loved ones. Over one million people in the UK live with bipolar disorder, yet many experience symptoms for years before receiving an accurate diagnosis.

We are entering an exciting new phase following the launch of our co‑produced three‑year strategy (2026–2029). Over the coming years, we will reach more people than ever before, expand access to self‑management support, and build understanding of bipolar across workplaces, services and communities.

At the heart of our work is the belief that people affected by bipolar are the experts in their own lives. We are committed to equity, diversity and inclusion, and to ensuring our services are accessible, culturally responsive and shaped by lived experience.

Purpose of the Role

Our Trainer plays a vital role in helping people understand bipolar, reduce stigma, and build confidence to live well.

You will deliver:

  • Eight‑week self‑management courses for people living with a bipolar diagnosis
  • Bipolar awareness and workplace training for employers and professionals

You will also contribute to the ongoing development of training and psychoeducation, supporting our ambition to grow accredited and evidence‑informed learning programmes.

Training audiences are diverse and include individuals with lived experience, employees and managers, housing providers, community organisations, and statutory or criminal justice settings.

Through confident, compassionate and trauma‑informed facilitation, you will help create safe learning spaces, challenge stereotypes, and support greater engagement with Bipolar UK — particularly among communities who may not traditionally access mental health support.

Why join us?

This is a chance to shape how bipolar is understood across workplaces, communities and services — helping people move from diagnosis to confidence, and from stigma to understanding.
