Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On October 1st 2022 I will be doing a sky dive to raise money for Beat - the UK's leading eating disorder charity. As someone who has lived experience of bulimia, disordered eating and binge eating disorder, I hold the work that Beat does very close to my heart. As an advisor for the charity myself, and a previous volunteer, I can say that everyone at Beat truly cares about making a positive difference to the lives of people with eating disorders and changing the way our society and government views eating disorders.
Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental health illness and sadly the cases of eating disorders are increasing so it's absolutely crucial that we can raise as much money as we can to make sure that as many people as possible can get the support that they deserve.
If you have found this page through my Instagram you will be aware that I am particularly passionate about raising awareness and developing the support available for people with binge eating disorder due to my personal lived experience and unfortunately the many misconceptions I think there are around this eating disorder. This is something I am actively working on within Beat and your donations will help towards this.
If you're not aware of my Instagram but think it would be supportive, you can find me on @bingefreeandbeautiful
Absolutely any amount you can afford to donate will be very greatly appreciated, or even just sharing this with friends/family who might be able to donate would be such an amazing support!
Once you donate, JustGiving sends the money directly to Beat & if you're a taxpayer you can select GiftAid so the government will also pay a little extra towards Beat.
Sending lots of gratitude & love to you all, Becca!
