Talking about eating disorders can be difficult but it’s a really important conversation. That’s why we’re asking you to organise or join a Walk & Talk event to raise vital funds for Beat. Let’s talk about eating disorders and walk away from secrecy, stigma, and misunderstanding.
It doesn’t have to be a trek or a marathon - it’s all about enjoying fresh air and gentle exercise with friends, family and colleagues. You decide the date, route and distance – it can be as long or as short as suits you. Invite as many people as you can, and ask your walkers to raise sponsorship for Beat from their own networks of friends and family. Every penny raised will support Beat’s vision: to end the pain and suffering caused by eating disorders.
"Our walk was a way of not only raising money but of walking away from the eating disorder… I wanted to fundraise for Beat to try and ensure that everyone has access to the help and support they need." Jess, Beat fundraiser 2017
