Yesterday I hosted a Government Roundtable, it was the “launch pad” for some exciting work being done on eating disorders .. whilst this fitted in with #DumpTheScales, there is also the realisation that this is a wider issue than just BMI! This is a systemic failure around services!
I will do a proper debrief at some point this week but as a quick summary we had 81 people join which included campaigners, 10 Members of Parliament, experts, councils, frontline NHS staff, schools ...
We have also now got a concrete plan with key asks for the Government!
Right now people with eating disorders and their families are being faced with huge injustices!
People are unable to access treatment, people are facing huge stigmas, and what is a system that was already overwhelmed, is now facing even more demand as a result of #Covid19.
It was an exciting step forward in so many ways and I am thankful for all those who campaigned before me and continue to campaign alongside me now!
Please do head over to my instagram where you will be able to see some extra videos being share this week from the event itself.
Together we will end this injustice!!
