As part of the work of The Hearts Minds and Genes Coalition for Eating Disorders; I am delighted to share with you the “Eating Disorders can impact anybody and everybody #ChangeTheStory” campaign launching today! And to ask you to support! 

No-one should be condemned to a life of illness, nor should anyone be dying of an eating disorder in 2022.

Those suffering are so often hidden in plain sight amongst all ages, genders races, ethnicities, body shapes and weights, sexual orientations and socio-economic status, affecting every aspect of society.

There are three ways you can get involved: 

1. By taking a photo with one of the placards (or writing #changethestory on a piece of paper) and sharing on your social media. (Don’t forget to hashtag on social media so we can share your support!) 

2. Recording a video showing your support for the campaign saying why you are getting behind the #ChangeTheStory campaign

3. Sharing our Instagram video on your social media. You can find it over on my account at "@HopeVirgo_" 

Assets to download for the campaign are here and please do get sharing from 2nd March: https://we.tl/t-Gvks3vG7Rk?src=dnl 0

Please feel free to use the suggested text below on your social media! 

Thank you so much for your support! We need as much noise as possible to ensure the Government and society starts to tackle eating disorders as a matter of urgency!
