February 25- March 3rd is Eating Disorders Week
Wed 27th February 2019
February 25th - March 3rd 2019 is International Eating Disorders Awareness Week. Becky vanden Bogaerde is an equestrian coach and rider, and for the second year running Becky is touring the UK presenting a talk to students of 10 equestrian colleges and at 3 open public lectures (of which this is one). These presentations are in support of ‘Beat’- the UK’s leading eating disorder charity.
https://www.beateatingdisorders.org.uk/
The presentation is a direct and honest account of her experiences as a sufferer, what led to her illness, and her journey into recovery. She talks about the facts and statistics of this startlingly common, life threatening and ever growing issue, how to recognise the signs, how to help and why early invention is the key.
It is not directed exclusively at those with an equestrian interest so please come along and learn how you can support Beat to raise awareness and break the stigma.
Entry is free but places are limited so please book tickets via the BvB Equestrian online shop (using promo code EDAW2019)
A voluntary donation on the day to Beat would be greatly appreciated. Facebook link... https://www.facebook.com/events/2284135381858151/
