The landscape of national challenges in
eating disorders
cont.
There is a gap in care, and general public understanding of eating disorders,
despite increasing government recognition of the importance of Mental
Health, and associated funding. The focus remains necessarily on those who
are severely ill, usually with anorexia nervosa; those with bulimia nervosa
and binge eating disorder are not prioritised. With eating disorders on an
increasingly alarming rise, all effective help is welcome.
of those directly affected by
eating disorders are male
Statistics from Royal College of Psychiatrists record an 84% rise in hospital
admissions in the last five years reaching a total of 24,268. These are just
the people who are ill enough to be hospitalised. Those receiving other
treatment have increased by two-thirds since before the Covid
pandemic. A vast swathe of people are affected by eating disorders,
and do not qualify for statutory care, with estimates ranging up to 11%
for young girls, and 10Y. for 48-year-old women. At the same time, it is
estimated that 25% of those directly affected are male, and that this is
the fastest growing statistic.
Added to this, there is limited training for GPS who, for example, tend to
focus on re-feeding and weight restoration. IAPT, GP surgeries and caring
agencies refer to tastelife; and many others self-refer. An increasing number
of those struggling with eating issues are accessing tastelife resources
which are not dependent on professional funding, but on the training of
caring volunteers, who can then deliver help in their local communities.
