There has been a huge rise in the number of people affected by eating disorders. This APPG will raise awareness of the illness, fight the stigma, and ensure that every person can access the right treatment.
Note: All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are informal, cross-party groups formed by MPs and Members of the House of Lords who share a common interest in a particular policy area, region or country. APPGs have no official status within Parliament.
