Beat (Eating Disorders Support)
Service
Beat, the UK’s eating disorder charity, is working with Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust to provide a complement of services that support the Trust’s Pan-Sussex Children and Young People and Family Eating Disorder Service. The Services provided by Beat aim to improve the lives of all those affected by an eating disorder.
What we do:
- Professional Development Training aimed at professionals who work with young people to recognise and understand the effects of an eating disorder. We hope this will mean more young people get the vital treatment they need earlier.
- Developing Dolphins Skills Workshops These two-day workshops aim to empower parent carers to support change and promote recovery by improving their understanding of eating disorders; and by providing tools and practical strategies to care for someone.
- Echo Peer Coaching Echo is a free peer coaching telephone service that matches skilled volunteers with parents or carers supporting someone currently struggling with an eating disorder. The service reduces isolation and the burden of caring for someone.
- Ambassadors Our Ambassadors speak about their experience to educate and break down barriers to treatment, whilst acting as inspirational figures proving recovery is possible. We are recruiting across Sussex.
