BPD consumers, carers and clinicians enjoyed a free picnic lunch, to celebrate BPD Awareness Week, in the gardens of Karrayarta Drive Glenside on Sunday 3rd October from 12-3pm.

Despite the rain, we enjoyed the chance to relax, chat and share some conviviality with others.

The invitation was open to anyone who lives with the symptoms of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) or cares for someone who does.

Sanctuary was delighted to co-host this picnic with the SA Branch of the Australian BPD Foundation.  BPD Co was there too, providing fun, creative activities.

We gratefully acknowledge the support of our partners, BPD Collaborative and the Mental Health Coalition of SA.

For lunch, a baked potato, a cold drink and unlimited coffee or tea.

BPD Awareness Week runs from 1st to 7th October every year.  This year, the theme is Discover Creative Wellbeing
