Patient and public engagement
Every year ED HIT holds a patient and public event. These events are led by Carolyn (Peer Co-director & Patient and Public Involvement Lead). The events are open to anyone affected by an eating disorder or on a recovery journey, and family, carers and friends. They are very informal but a very useful way for the HIT to gather information and share our research. Information from these events inform ED HIT priorities as they help identify barriers or challenges on care, and sometimes they highlight good practice which we cascade through our professional channels.
Upcoming events
Join us for our upcoming Mindful Mandala Workshop on Thursday 5th February, 5:30-7:30pm at the Arnolfini Arts, Bristol.
A relaxed arts-based event, led by Sayambrita Mukherjee, Community Artist & Workshop Facilitator, for anyone affected by eating difficulties or eating disorders, including friends, family and supporters.
A gentle space to meet others and connect, whilst feeling supported among people who understand.
The event includes a Bharatnatyam dance performance by Chandini Sree, with a focus on lived experience of eating disorders in the South Asian community.
All materials provided, so you can simply come as you are.
