This year, Eating Disorders Awareness week is highlighting how eating disorders can affect anyone. Misconceptions around what eating disorders look like can mean people delay seeking help, decreasing their chances of a full recovery.
Facilitated by our Chair, Sian Taylor, & Tanya Rumney, this course is suitable for anyone in the dietetic workforce with supervision responsibilities or considering such a role. It is also valuable for those receiving supervision who want to make the most of sessions.
We have just restocked our ARFID resource due to popular demand!

To celebrate this years Student Volunteering Week our Social Media Officer Holly tells us what she loves about volunteering for the BDA ARFID Sub-Group.

Cases of a little-known eating disorder called Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) are increasing, with growing numbers of families struggling to access adequate support, charities say
