Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
The support available for eating disorders is underfunded and underestimated.
For years I struggled with weight issues, moving from one diet to another, gaining more weight every time and damaging any normal relationship I had with food.
Without the right support, the acknowledgement of an underlying eating condition and surgery, I would never have gotten to where I am now. I’m happy, healthy and of course achieving new personal goals through my running.
I started running as a test 6 months out from surgery but with the company and support of my big sister I run regularly. This will be the furthest I have ever walked never mind run!
I want to support Beat in raising the profile of eating disorders, the damage they cause and for all involved show that YOU ARE NOT ALONE. There is not enough funding for these causes and if my experience helps to raise more toward the cause I will be pleased to see it do some good.
The money raised here will go to a great cause.
