Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page for my 54 mile cycle ride from London to Brighton on the 16th September!
As many of you will know, I have struggled with anorexia since I was 8 years old, when my relationship with food became anything but 'normal'. After two lengthy hospital admissions and being pushed to breaking point, I am now fighting back with the help of day care. I am not alone in my struggles, there are an estimated 1.6 million people in the UK suffering from an eating disorder; anorexia has the highest death rate of any psychiatric disorder. However, it doesn't just impact on the sufferer, the ripples of such a disease stretch further than many can even imagine. It isn't only the sufferer who requires help in coping and b-eat acts to provide such support.
I am fundraising to help show that eating disorders can be beaten and give something back to the services to which I owe so much for still being here today!
