Eating Disorders Awareness Week 26 February - 4 March 2018

Eating Disorders Awareness Week is an international awareness week, and every year Beat focuses on issues that matter to people affected by eating disorders.

This year’s campaign to raise awareness for eating disorders is “Sock It to Eating Disorders”. Eating disorder sufferers face an average wait of three and a half years for specialist treatment. During that time, by far the longest gap came between symptoms first emerging and people recognising these as an eating disorder. Almost as much time went by between this realisation and people taking the step to ask for help from their GP. By raising awareness of the early signs, and showing that sufferers need and deserve help, you can make a real difference. The sooner someone gets help, the faster they can recover, lessening the impact on their life, family and future.

So by wearing your socks at your workplace, school, or university and donating to Beat, you play a vital role in ending pain and suffering.
