Mark your calendars - it's our Inaugural Aotearoa Eating Disorder and Body Image Awareness Week for 2025!
Join us and Eating Disorders Carers Support NZ (EDCS) CoRe ED, Redefined Coaching, Carers NZ and Able Minds from 1- 7 September 2025 as we 'Unpack The Why' and explore what causes eating disorders, to spread awareness, amplify voices of lived experience and advocate for increased support. 💜
This year’s theme invites us all to understand the true breadth of challenges that can cause an eating disorder - and while body dissatisfaction can be a significant factor for many, it's time we also consider how trauma, sensory sensitivities, co-occurring health conditions, genetics, culture, family history and other intersections play a role in the development of these complex illnesses. 🧬
