I am fundraising for Beat, the UK's eating disorder charity. Beat supports anyone with an eating disorder, their friends and family, as well as professionals working with or worried about an individual in their care.

These serious mental illnesses include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder. 1.25 million people in the UK have a diagnosed eating disorder. They affect people of all ages and backgrounds, and up to one in four sufferers are male. Eating disorders cost the UK's economy £16.8 billion each year.

I will be taking part in a skydive this May to raise money for BEAT. This is something that means a lot to me. I have struggled for a while now with anorexia. I want to now share my experience to help others and bring more awareness of eating disorders. I’m so lucky to have such amazing support, something that not everyone gets access to which is why this charity is so important. Throughout my recovery one of my biggest motivations was to raise money and do this skydive.
