Major characteristics are obsession with food and possible consequential life-threatening obesity, learning difficulties and emotional and social instability.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 140%; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; background: white; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;"><span style="line-height: 140%; font-family: &amp;amp;amp;amp; color: #1c1c1c; font-size: 10.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;amp;amp;#39; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">As well as raising vital funds for the charity, I will be raising much needed awareness for both the syndrome and the charity.
