Beat is the UK’s eating disorder charity. Founded in 1989 as the Eating Disorders Association, Beat's mission is to end the pain and suffering caused by eating disorders. Its national Helpline exists to encourage and empower people to seek help quickly, as early treatment greatly increases the chances of recovery. Individuals can reach out to Beat online or by phone, where they will be listened to, helped to understand the illness, and supported in taking positive steps towards recovery.
Beat also extends support to family and friends, providing them with essential skills and advice to assist their loved ones while maintaining their own mental well-being. Beat shares a vision of ending the pain and suffering caused by eating disorders and is driven by the people it serves, the impact it can make, and the commitment shared among its members.
