We are fundraising for Beat, the UK's eating disorder charity. Beat supports anyone with an eating disorder, their friends and family, as well as professionals working with or worried about an individual in their care.
Eating disorders are scary, isolating and lonely illnesses. These serious mental illnesses include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder. 1.25 million people in the UK have a diagnosed eating disorder. They affect people of all ages and backgrounds, and up to one in four sufferers are male.
This year, the fantastic new campaign ‘Beat 1-2-5’ will take place the week of 7th -13th October, to coincide with World Mental Health Day on 10th October 2024.
RSSL are running this challenge throughout October, encouraging staff members to join the team and host their own events.
