Our Mission
To provide an opportunity for individuals (regardless of their background, culture or creed) to address and manage their eating disorder in a safe and supportive manner that seeks to improve the quality of their life.
Our Story
EDS is a charity founded in 1995, we have been providing specialist support to individuals in the Plymouth and West Devon area living with eating disorders.
Our aim is to empower individuals and their friends and family to develop the skills needed through recovery.
EDS is a charity and part funded by the Devon Integrated Care Board (ICB), we are proud to offer our services for free. Donations help us to continue improving the services we deliver.
The Story of our Logo
We have all seen birds flying through the sky in a V formation. Scientists have shown that this formation increases the range of flight by up to 71% through the slip stream it creates. The lead bird when it is tired, swaps to the back to take advantage of this support, and the birds at the back make loud noises to encourage the ones at the front!
At EDS we believe no one should be struggling alone, when we are isolated it is hard to progress, but with the support we offer one another it is possible to make longer and safer journeys by sharing in the ‘slipstream’ of each other’s efforts.
