In 2024, we took over the Secretariat for the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Eating Disorders. As part of the APPG, we campaign for every single person who is affected by eating disorders by lobbying the government, writing reports and hosting events. We work with 20 MPs from across the floor to create a world where every single person with an eating disorder can access the right treatment at the right time and to improve research and funding for eating disorders. 

​

The Chair of the APPG is Wera Hobhouse MP, Co-Chair is Olivia Blake MP, and the Officers are Sian Berry MP and Danny Kruger MP.

​

Our achievements to date:​

• In January 2025 we published our report 'The Right to Health: People with Eating Disorders are Being Failed.' 

• Since then we have been lobbying the government to commit to a National Eating Disorders Strategy. 

• We have submitted 5 letters to the Prime Minister Keir Starmer, and Health Secretary to ask for additional funding for services, children's funding cuts and to raise awareness of the neglect in eating disorder services. 

• We have also hosted 10 evidence sessions with people with lived experience, their families and professionals on preventing deaths in eating disorders and intend to launch our 'Preventing deaths in eating disorders' strategy this Autumn.
