Story
Eating disorders are on the rise & in 2015 it was estimated that more than 750,000 people in the UK have an eating disorder. Anorexia has the highest mortality rate of any psychiatric disorder yet research and treatment for eating disorders is inadequate & underfunded leading to tragic & unnecessary deaths. There is also a lack of awareness around eating disorders which are greatly misunderstood.

On 1st February 2016 my beautiful wee sister Emma Bruce passed away. She suffered from anorexia for many years & unfortunately lost her fight against it. In memory of Emma I have set up this page to raise awareness & money for research & treament for anorexia. Further info below.
