Eating Disorders
FREED
If you or someone you care about is suffering from an eating disorder the best way forward is to get help and support as early as possible.
If you are 17.5 to 25 years old, and have been living with an eating disorder for three years or less, then you may be eligible to access support through FREED.

PEACE is a Pathway for Eating disorders and Autism developed from Clinical Experience. Our research suggests that around 35% of people experiencing an eating disorder may may have autism spectrum condition (ASC), or present with high levels of autistic traits. We hope this pathway will support autistic people suffering with an eating disorder, their loved ones and their clinicians.
