Body dissatisfaction is a risk factor for (and a common symptom of) eating disorders, as well as a risk factor for other mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem.

Our ‘Understanding Body Image’ workshop series is designed to be a dynamic service, offering psycho-education around body and mood within a positive peer group environment. 

Our Boys and Men Workshop provides a safe space to explore body image, mental health, and eating disorders in males, challenging societal norms and pressures.

Topics include the impact of social media, masculinity expectations, and the role of body image in a man’s identity, as well as gym culture, orthorexia, perfectionism, and binge eating.

Stigma and misinformation can often prevent individuals from accessing the support they need, not helped by a lack of services available to those struggling with BED.

Our workshop offers information to help identify triggers and navigate difficult situations. Facilitated by individuals with lived experience of binge eating disorder.

This workshop block based on the therapeutic blueprint, acts as a fantastic step-down for service users after any type of support. It offers participants the opportunity to: reflect on the support they have received, gain deeper insight into early warning signs and triggers, explore topics such as body image, explore supportive networks, recovery management, and develop a personalised relapse prevention plan. Attendees will gain new tools and coping mechanisms which can help manage difficult situations and any setbacks within recovery.

There is a lot of information out there which discusses nutrition, making it difficult to understand what is true.

Working with experts and nutritionists, we have developed a four-week workshop which offers evidence-based information to help us learn how to navigate diet culture and misinformation. The course also explores ways to cope in challenging situations such as mealtimes, spontaneity with friends and challenging disordered thoughts.
