Eating disorders and problems are serious mental health conditions which can involve impacted eating habits and different feelings about food, weight, and body image. Disordered eating can affect a person's emotions and physical health, and they are not just about wanting to look a certain way.

The workshop aims to:

  • increase knowledge as to how disordered eating and eating disorders present themselves
  • spot the warning signs, both physical and emotional
  • consider the effect of myths and stigma on how you approach the topic of disordered eating
  • be more equipped to support yourself and others
  • have an awareness of further services, apps or websites that may be of assistance to someone at risk or with an eating disorder.
