Our Helplines are open from 3pm– 8pm, Monday to Friday. Call us on 0808 801 0677 or email us at help@beateatingdisorders.org.uk
Support on the Helpline is available by phone, email, webchat through our social media accounts and by letter. Calls to the helpline are free from landlines and mobile phones within the UK and do not appear on itemised bills.
How we can help
If you contact our Helpline you will speak to a trained advisor experienced in providing support, information and signposting to people in a similar situation to you. Our helpline is action focused, giving you a space to explore your concerns and identify next steps.
Our eating disorder Helpline advisors are trained to:
- Offer a supportive space for you to explore your feelings and thoughts around eating disorders.
- Provide information about eating disorders. When we do not have the information that someone is looking for, we might be able to give you some ideas about who might be able to help.
- Explore options for help with eating disorders and to enable you to come to your own decisions about what might be best for you. This might include NHS treatment, private therapy, support from charitable organisations, peer support or self-help.
