Caring from someone with an eating disorder, is a complex task and requires carers to develop skills and knowledge they may not have previously had. Families need access to high quality information and advice.
EDFA is in the process of developing up and promoting useful resources for families and carers of those with an eating disorder. Please let us know of resources you would like developed or think would have been useful for you; or you have used and think we should promote!
