PERSONALISED EATING DISORDER SUPPORT
TRUSTEES. REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
The trustees present Iheir annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024.
The financial statemersts have been prepared in accordance with Ihe acceunling policies set oul in note I to the
financial stalemenls and comply wilh Ihe charity's trusl deed, the Charities Act 2011 and "Accounting and Reporting
by Charities.. Statement of Recommended Practlcg applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance
wsth the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" {effeclive 1 January
2019).
QweTview
We started 2024 focused on three priorities for the year and I'm delighted to share an overview of the progress that
we made against these, during what was another challenging year for people suffering the unbearable and deadly
burden of eating disorders. PEDS has helped more people than ever before. to find and build a life to get well for
and l am proud and grateful to be chair of this amazing charity.
Priority One is to build on the strength of our core NHS relationships and our ability to work collaboratively wilh NHS
teams to demonstrate the value and impact of our services. We achieve a great deal with the teams in both adult
and young people, across Cambridgeshire and now Lincolnshire and the wider East of England Network. We've
become the first VCSE partner to inlegrate into the NHS System One data platform which gives us a unique ability
to oollaborate. This is a great achievement and a tremendous effort from the team.
Priority Two 15 to develop our offering and in doing so provide more help to people whilst broadening the scope of
income into the charity. There have been several standout achievements in this area including the development of
our training and education programme that works wilh schools. GP practices. businesses and colleges. We have
also enhanced our work with Universities, strengthened our peer support offering and defined our advocacy service.
These really matter because we can lackle eating disorders systemically and not just at the point of referral or when
people first seek help.
Priority Three is to establish a PEDS Cenlre. i.e, a place from where we can deliver help directty to people. provide
specialist training, link with other services and run our ¢harlty from one central hub. bringing the team and our
neighbourhood together. A true highlight therefore was when we were awarded a grant from Peterborough City
Council lo do just that. I'm delighted to say Ihat we now hav8 our premises, and are turning it into a unique facility
for which to operate and a longer-lem home for the charity. We found Dur place.
Oblectives and activities

chaiily should undertake.

TRUSTEES, REPORT {CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
NHS programme
NHS Eating Disorder SeNices are our main partner with whom we collaborate to care for both children and adults
as well as supporting families and carefs. We've be¢ome a trusled partner to NHS ED seNices. working closely
with their team5 to ensure the best outcomes for people who need NHS care. Our service helps people to get the
right level of care, and access treatment and support after discharge to maintain recovery. This helps NHS teams to
care for people in most need of treatment, to effectively treat and to sustain their recovery.
Binge Eating Disorder (BED} group - We have designed and implemenled a binge-eating disorder group which is
designed to operale every week and online to help people overcome a binge-eating disorder. We help participants
leam about the physical and psyGhological impa¢t of binge ealing and some of the drivers for maintaining the
disorder. Each week participants leafn a new sktll and are then encouraged to put their new learning into practice
whilst checking in wilh themselves. The BED group has the potential to reach more service users and we are
gathering rnore data on ils effectiveness and providing a resource that in the future, could be utilised by olher
partners looking to work with and be supported by PEDS.
Healthy You We have been working closely with the Healthy You team leads, both the Health trainer coordinator
and adult weight management coordinator, to raise awareness of eatin9 disordets and to address a rise in patients
being referred for weight management seNices when they are suffering from an eating disorder. The collaboration
hopes Ihat by increasin9 awareness of eating disorders for the Healthy You and clinical triage teams, patients will be
referred to eating disorder Se￿Ice$ more swiftly and Teceive the help needed.
We have also identified that we have patients who have completed the PEDS journey and are still dissalisfied with
their weight and if left unsupported, may relapse and result in a return to old, restrictive-type behaviors. to control
weight. We have constructed a pathway with Healthy You thal outlines when and how to refer to PEDS and also
when and how we can refer to Healthy You. after patients have completed their PEDS joumey.
Our Steps to Stabilise (STS) model was created to help wtth our waiting list. This enables suilable patients to
re￿1ve 2 sessions, giving them the tools to stabilise their eating disorder before trealment starts. This has been a
great success, with 100•A of patients saying they were very satisfied with the service.
University Programme
We continue to work with both Anglia Ruskin and Cambrid9e University, allowing students to refer to us for support
quickly. Supporting students in university is cittical to enable them to cope with the pressures that they experience,
to succeed in their university life and go on to build that life to get well for,
Accoss care programme
The outcomes for people are far more positive when they receive support quickly. Eating disorders have one of the
highest mortality rates of any psychiatric illness, and the impa¢t of the COVID 19 pandemic and subsequent cost of
living crisis on mental health and well-being has been signifi¢ant. The number of people falling ill has Increased. the
acuity (level of illness) and ¢omplexity are alsr) highei. This makes il a priority for us to reach people as early as
possible into their eating disorder journey and lo maintain a dedicated focus on prevention and eilucation.
Helping people lo access carè for an eating disorder is a vital service thal we provide. People who are suffering or
who have GOn￿rn$ about someone are able to contact us and get help to find the support and a¢¢ess the care that
they need. ￿en someone reaches out to us for help or is referred by someone else we are able to assess Iheir
needs and respond.
Peer support• parent, and ¢arer programmes
The team are trained to deliver the New Maudsley parents and ¢arèrs workshops. This is 5 x 2-hour workshops that
are aimed at lowering anxiety and distress in family mernbers and to give carers communication tools, skills and
techniques that help them engage their loved one lo improve their self-esteem and develop the resilience to embark
on change. We have rer£ntly started our 4U) cohort.
The team are also development of joint training with NESSIE for parents. The parent support group has run

Feedback recelved from Patients
I would draw your attention to the feedback we receive from the people that we help. This is the testament to our
work, our nurse-led caring ethos and our ability to help people build a life to gel well for.
.1 am incredibly grateful for the support that my daughter received during our recent visit lo PEDS. Knowing PEDS
is nurse led I was keen to get my daughter seen by an ED spe¢ialisl rather Ihan a Dr who completely missed those
all-important signs. After contacling PEDS with my concems. we were seen within a couple of days, which was
crucial before my daughter could change her rnind. We were mel by a PEDS Nurse who immediately put my
daughter at ease, with her compassion and understanding of EDS, she expertly gained a fvll and accurate picture of
how my daughter was stnjggling, and carefully encouraged her to agree to a referral to our local CAMHS ED
services. The nurse made the referral process smooth and efficient. assisling me with any questions I had. Only
today the nurse at the CAMHS ED seNiGes said that other areas desperately need services like PEDS: they
provided us with thal vital first slep to a¢￿sSing the services my daughter so greatly needs and l ¢an't thank them
enough. (Mpther lo daughter aged 161
"I stopped Iracking food and I've refrained from purging. I no longer constantly weigh myself and I've ¢onquered fear
foods (I felt this made biggesl differen¢e to my life). I've changed my core beliefs to stop judging people based on
sizel weight and nol comparing myself to them and I'm able to truly smile at reflection. I'm no longer restricting food
and stabilising weight" (Female Aged 19)
.1 am so gralefvl for having worked with PEDS and for the help in allowing me to achieve so much and build a life
free from an ED which is bringing me so much joy and Ihe mosl amazing experiences, I look forward to the future.
(Female Aged 19)
.1 explained (to someone considering a PEDS referral) that I f811 PEDS approached things differently to perhaps. the
conventional ways of things. I really felt my individual background and mix of conditions were appreciated in a
holistic way. They gel to know the person. Basically, their knowledge, just their general approach. ￿allY helped me
form new associations wrth food" (Male aged 42)
.1 would just like lo say my appreciation for getting me on track and things really improving with my health. I'm still
managing to keep on track despile a lot of Stress and really can't thank you for that push you give me. PEDS has
been absolutely amazing and l am so grateful, wtthoul PEDS I wouldn't have been able keep stable over Christmas
and my menlal and physical health has improved. We (my family as well) can't thank you enough., (Female aged
23)
"Thank you so much for seeing us again and helping our daughler get back on track, I cannot thank PEDS onough
for always helping us" (Mother to daughter aged 23)

Our work with Universities expanding SD that we can reach more young people at a critical stage in their lives

Flnancial review
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be
maintained at a level equivalent to between Ihree and six month's expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves
al this level will ensure that, in Ihe event of a significanl drop in fundin9, they will be able to Continue the charity's
current activities while considération is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves
has been mainlained Ihroughout the year.
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charily is exposed, in particular those related to the
operations and finances of the Charity. and are satisfied that syslems are in place to mitigate their exposure to the
major risks. The Trustees will continue to monitor and review the risks as they deem appropriate.
