Collective Advocacy – Experiences of Eating Disorders

People with lived experience of eating disorders come together and share their stories to create awareness, to help educate others and to reduce stigma. They make the decisions about what is important to them and how this is conveyed. They draw on their experiences to raise awareness with the view to improving knowledge about eating disorders and eating disorder services. Activities undertaken by the group include research into ‘Men and Eating Disorders’, and providing workshops to raise awareness of what it’s like to live with an eating disorder.
