Manchester-based BiPhoria is the longest-running bisexual social / support project in the UK. It was established in 1994 through the coming together of the Manchester Men's Bisexual Group and Manchester Bi Women's Group.
From 1994 to 2000 it met monthly at the Lesbian & Gay Centre on Sidney Street on the first Thursday of each month for the main social/support meetings, with other social events in the rest of the month. From 2000 onwards it has met at the Lesbian & Gay Foundation building on the first Tuesday of each month.
The group has hosted events each year to mark Bi Visibility Day on September 23rd, several Bi Activist Conferences, four BiFests and other events.
Spin-off groups have included Bisexual Action Manchester, Bi Youth, Bisexual Action.
BiPhoria has published a number of reports looking into bisexual needs and issues. Current resources include a publication on bisexuality & mental health (2011) and a pocket guide to "getting bi" (2011).
