First Steps ED is an award-winning, quality assured mental health and specialist eating disorders charity. With a strong emphasis on early intervention and prevention, they provide care and support to children, families, young people, and adults affected by eating difficulties and disorders. Founded on the experiences of individuals who have firsthand knowledge of eating disorders and mental health conditions, their services complement those provided by the NHS and Public Health in the community.

First Steps ED is commissioned by NHS organizations and funded by grants that align with their aims. The charity's dedication is evident through their 8:1 funding ratio, where they secure an additional £8 for every £1 invested by the NHS. Their team of professionals, who are service users themselves, work tirelessly to make a positive impact in the lives of those they support.
