We’re raising funds for our 2026 in-person BDD Conference, an important opportunity for people with lived experience, families, clinicians, and supporters to connect, learn about BDD and its treatments, and support their recovery. Funds will go towards venue, staff, food, and event delivery costs.

Body Dysmorphic Disorder is a severe and often misunderstood mental health condition. Many of those affected feel isolated, ashamed, and struggle to access appropriate treatment or support. Our conferences address this by providing a rare, safe space for connection, raising awareness of the condition and treatments, reducing stigma, and offering support among those with lived experience, families, and professionals. Our conferences help to break the cycle of isolation for those living with BDD.

We’ll deliver an in-person BDD Conference in 2026. This year, we're giving a strong focus on supporting those with lived experience through live interactive workshops and support groups. These sessions will offer actionable tools for ongoing recovery, reduce isolation, and aim to build confidence in those who attend. By offering a chance to connect and share understanding, we will create a safe, empowering space that helps individuals take meaningful steps forwards in their recovery journey.
