Petition updateEating Disorders are not just about weight #dumpthescalesWe took our campaigning back to Parliament!

On Monday we went to parliament to launch the UK’s first ever Eating Disorder Manifesto and an exciting new school nurse toolkit.  

We are working to remove the stigma and misunderstanding that surrounds these illnesses, ensuring that nobody should experience shame or guilt for suffering from a biologically based illness and everybody should have timely access to specialist services. 

We believe that enough is enough when it comes to how people affected by eating disorders are treated and it is this that continues to drive us to make this change. No one should be condemned to a life of illness or be dying of an eating disorder in 2022. 
It would be brilliant to have your support with sharing this on social media and with your networks.  

Suggested social media:  

1. I am excited to be supporting the #ChangeTheStory campaign to not shy away from talking about eating disorders. Watch the video here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CjzjxLXKAxM/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=
