Beat is the UK's leading charity dedicated to supporting anyone affected by an eating disorder. Established in 1989 as the Eating Disorders Association, our mission is to end the pain and suffering caused by these illnesses. We offer a national Helpline available 365 days a year to provide crucial support, guidance, and encouragement for individuals seeking help. Our services extend to families and friends, equipping them with essential skills to aid in their loved one's recovery journey while maintaining their mental well-being.

With around 1.25 million people in the UK silently battling eating disorders, we strive to increase awareness, provide high-quality treatment, and campaign for better funding. Through our work, we aim to save lives, keep families together, and help individuals live free of eating disorders. Join us in our mission to make a difference, and let's work together towards a future free from the pain of eating disorders.
