We will not stand for the way people affected by eating disorders are currently treated! But we need your help!! 

Alongside our eating disorder march on 20 May we will be delivering a letter to Number 10! 

We need your name to be added to the letter!! 

Eating disorders are one of the deadliest mental illnesses but the funding and support they receive has never met the demand. The government seems intent on blaming the pandemic for the recent rise in people of all ages receiving treatment, which ignores that we are where we are due to a lifetime of underfunding of services and research and years of dangerous health initiatives such as calorie counting on menus that have normalised disordered eating.

Eating disorders are a serious mental health issue often hidden in plain sight and they have the highest mortality rate of any other psychiatric illness

Please help us end this injustice by adding your name to our open letter right here and sharing this far and wide! 

No-one should be condemned to a life of illness, nor should anyone be dying of an eating disorder in 2023. 

thank you so much for your support!!
