Eating disorders can affect anyone at any time - and it might not be who you expect.
This Eating Disorders Awareness Week, we want you to know you are not alone. Greater public awareness is needed. #EatingDisordersAwarenessWeek #EDAW2025 #AnyoneAnytime

[Wera Hobhouse MP 🔶 🇺🇦 @Wera_Hobhouse]

🧠With 1.25 million people in the UK suffering from eating disorders, the Government cannot overlook the ED treatment crisis.

Waiting lists are soaring, and lives are at stake. It's time for the Government to prioritise and appoint an Eating Disorder Prevention Champion @beatED.

Minister @mariacaulfield, gave hope for new targets for adult eating disorder care in England. “NHS England have consulted on setting a target… I am particularly keen that is introduced as quickly as possible… because what gets measured, gets done.” (5/6)

Say it with us:

YES, MEN GET EATING DISORDERS.
YES, MEN GET EATING DISORDERS.
YES, MEN GET EATING DISORDERS.
YES, MEN GET EATING DISORDERS.
YES, MEN GET EATING DISORDERS.

That’s it. That’s the post.

Failings in care led to 19 lives being lost to #EatingDisorders in England since 2018 that could have been avoided, @HSJNews has discovered. Sign our petition demanding action from the Government to address this national crisis. #NoMoreLivesLost https://t.co/bPdbk0Btyy

Wait, men get eating disorders?

Yes they do. And it happens far too often. But societal expectations can make it difficult for men to recognise the early symptoms of an eating disorder and ask for help. We want to change that.

[Beat @beatED]

Your gender shouldn’t determine your treatment. So why are men struggling to get proper eating disorder support?

If you identify as a man with an eating disorder, share your story – and help us help you 🤝🏼

Thank you to the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care @SajidJavid for speaking out about #EDAW2022 and highlighting Beat’s work to improve medical training on eating disorders for future doctors 👏

A pretty good day at the office 😎

P.S. Why are YOU supporting Beat?

that he has deemed this to be an appropriate response. 

We would urge the Prime Minister to educate himself on the seriousness of these mental illnesses, and limit his comments of other MPs to their actions, not their appearances. 2/2

[Beat @beatED]

It is completely unacceptable that the Prime Minister should resort to making fatphobic comments. It shows a clear lack of regard for, or understanding of the 1.25 million people in the UK affected by eating disorders, and we are extremely disappointed… 1/2

[Waterstones Bluewater @Bluewaterstones]

We are super super excited to introduce our October #bookshopchoice, #TheDustNeverSettles by @KLickorishQuinn. Magical realism with ghosts and a past that just won’t settle. Perfect to hunker down with over a steaming mug of tea. #signedcopies @OneworldNews

[Dr Karina Lickorish Quinn @KLickorishQuinn]

Piece of advice for free: having a book come out while trying to work, care for a sick little one and plan a children's birthday party for 20 kids plus parents all in one week is Not The Thing. #mumlife #writerslife

[Dr Karina Lickorish Quinn @KLickorishQuinn]

It's publication day for #TheDustNeverSettles! Thank you to everyone who has supported my journey. Readers, I'll meet you in these pages! ☀️💛💥

[Waterstones @Waterstones]

In the new #WaterstonesPodcast family and Peruvian history combine to create a novel of home, injustice and the ghosts that haunt us as we look inside @KLickorishQuinn's magical debut.

Eeep! 💕😊🎉Never going to quite get my head around people saying such lovely things about

[RCPsych Eating Disorders Faculty @rcpsychEDFac]

It is disappointing that eating disorders keeps being forgotten when discussing the physical health of people with severe mental illness. The @rcpsychEDFac would have been keen to contribute to this work, along with several charities @beatED @FEAST_ED @ConsiderMaleEDs @NHSEngland
