Do you have a loved one living with schizophrenia?
We are a family support group offering relatives and carers of people living with schizophrenia an empathetic space for mutual support and learning.
Strength through sharing
By coming together to improve our knowledge and understanding of schizophrenia, and by sharing our stories, problems and successes, we gain the confidence, skills and strength to support our loved ones to lead meaningful and fulfilled lives.
We believe that the more we learn about schizophrenia and mental illness, and the more we realise we are not alone, the more comfortable we will be to speak out in our daily lives – raising public awareness, reducing stigma and advocating for the rights of those with mental illness.
