VLOG: World Bipolar Day 2022

Last year for World Bipolar Day on 30 March, we invited one of our yoga teachers, Anna from HappyHeadYoga, to talk openly about being bipolar. She made a very brave and honest “coming out” video blog for Mary Frances Trust, helping us to raise awareness of the condition.

This year, while she is overcoming some new personal challenges, she lets us know how she is getting on and what lessons she has learnt on her journey to manage her condition in a new, wonderfully raw and powerful video blog (see below).

To mark World Bipolar Day 2022, Anna is also running a 4-week Yoga for Bipolar Course starting 5 April 2022, 3pm-4pm on Zoom. Download the poster.

Delivery and Strategy Lead: Co-Production and Community Engagement (Leatherhead)

Portrait of Megan, Co-Production Lead, MFT

Megan joined MFT in January 2025 and looks after the development of our strategic priority for MFT to live and breathe co-production. She also facilitates our Advisory Group, and champions those with lived experience of mental health challenges to improve the way mental health support is developed, reviewed, and delivered.

Megan first learnt about co-production as a Lived Experience Advisor with the Independent Mental Health Network based at Surrey Coalition of Disabled People, contributing her own lived experience to mental health projects in Surrey and North East Hampshire after graduating university.

She has since worked on a range of development projects for Surrey’s mental health and wellbeing support, immersing community engagement and lived experience into research and decision-making. Additionally, she is an alumna for The King’s Fund after completing their Advanced Organisational Development Practitioner programme.

To maintain her wellbeing, Megan is an avid reader, journals, and practices Yoga.
