Eating Disorder Awareness Week 2012

This week it is Eating Disorder Awareness Week (20th-26th February). Eating Disorder Awareness Week is a great opportunity to raise awareness about eating disorders, to challenge misunderstandings about eating disorders and to get people talking about this important issue.

Events will be happening all across Scotland- you can find out what is happening near you by looking on the beat website. If you’re putting on an event then get in touch and tell us all about it! Email the Young Scot InfoLine on infoline@youngscot.org or call 0808 801 0338. The lines are open Monday to Friday 10 am til 6 pm.

Here at Young Scot we’re doing a range of different things to mark Eating Disorder Awareness Week. We’ll be putting up new information about Eating Disorders throughout the week, in the Magazine section we’ll be publishing features on Re-Capture- a youth led photography project that is focused on recovery from eating disorders. We’ll also be putting up an eating disorder related Vote of the Day each day so keep an eye for those!
