Big changes such as going to university can be difficult to navigate, especially being away from familiar settings if you've been affected by an eating disorder. So, we are joining Student Minds and UMHAN this #UniMentalHealthDay to let you know that you are not alone 💜

Our film highlights the experiences of young people from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds, who share their perspectives on how their ethnicity and culture impacted their experience of developing, living with and seeking help for an eating disorder.

Eating Disorders Awareness Week (EDAW) happens each year to increase understanding of eating disorders and the many ways they can affect people’s lives. Despite common stereotypes, eating disorders can affect people of all ages, genders, backgrounds and body types.
