Story
Welcome to my fundraising page!
I’m fundraising for Beat Scotland, a charity that supports people affected by eating disorders and their loved ones.
I struggled with anorexia for much of my teenage years. This has impacted every area of my life, not just my health.
During my illness, Beat provided me with incredible support. I was lucky enough to have a peer support worker through Beat who had lived experience of an eating disorder herself. Feeling understood by someone who truly “got it” made a huge difference and helped me feel far less alone.
Beat doesn’t just support those with eating disorders — they also recognise the impact on families and loved ones, offering guidance and resources to help them support someone who is unwell.
Your donations will help support Beat’s vision to end the pain and suffering caused by eating disorders, funding vital services such as helplines and online support groups.
To raise money, I’ll be running the Edinburgh Half Marathon in 2026 — combining my love of running with a cause that means so much to me.
Thank you so much for reading, donating if you can, and supporting this amazing charity
