The anticipation of the Christmas season appears to begin earlier each year, with supermarkets increasingly stocking Christmas products ahead of time. This period can pose particular challenges for individuals affected by eating disorders. The lead-up to the season, along with changes in routine and heightened expectations around social gatherings and food, may result in increased stress, pressure, and conflicting emotions.
Our annual Coping with Christmas webinar is open to both those living with an eating disorder and those supporting a person with an eating disorder during this time.
- When: Thursday 3rd December
- Where: Online via Zoom
- Time: 7pm – 9pm

We have free Coping at Christmas Resources for people with eating disorders and those supporting a person with an eating disorder during this time.
