The British and Irish Group for the Study of 'Personality Disorder' was formed in 1999 to provide a forum for networking in the field of 'personality disorder'. The group organises one main event each year which is a stimulating conference with relevant keynote talks from a variety of fields with presentations of new research, service developments, user invovlement and workshops. Our last conference was in Cardiff. Our next Community of Practice is in London on the 11th of May. 
Additionally, BIGSPD are currently working towards developing a learning community which can support and connect individuals in working with people with a diagnosis of 'personality disorder' and will therefore be facilitating and coordinating learning regular events to share, thinking, innovation and significant developments which will enhance our efforts to reduce distress and improve lives. The first Community of Practice event was December 2016 in Leeds - please see the Communities of Practice page for further details.
