We're shining a light on ARFID...

... to be the first to hear more about EDAW join our mailing list

Eating Disorders Awareness Week | 26 February - 3 March

You asked. We listened.

This year we are shining a light on a health condition that we know doesn't always get the attention it deserves: ARFID.

Why ARFID?

ARFID stands for Avoidant restrictive food intake disorder and is a largely unknown and misunderstood eating disorder.  ARFID can have serious consequences for health if left untreated.

The number of people affected by ARFID is unknown. Treatment is not available nationwide and people with ARFID, or who suspect they may have it, struggle to access the help they need.

How can I get involved?

There are many ways you can get involved in EDAW 2024. Follow our socials, subscribe to receive our emails or use this website to find out more in the coming weeks.

Book a place on our CPD-accredited ARFID workshop. Aimed at those caring for someone with ARFID and Health Professionals, this online event takes place on 28 February 2024 during Eating Disorder Awareness Week. Super Early Bird price of £25 available now. Don't miss out.

Hear from our supporters about their real life experiences of ARFID.
