Do you have a constituent with an eating disorder that has been denied NHS care?

If you are supporting a constituent who has (either themselves or as a carer) been denied a referral, assessment, information, or treatment for an eating disorder, Beat Eating Disorders’ free casework advisory service may be able to help. 

We regularly hear from people whose care is not in line with clinical guidance. Our team has an in-depth understanding of eating disorder treatment pathways and can advise MPs and their staff on the steps that can be taken to challenge and overturn these decisions. 

We can provide advice on what treatment guidelines say should happen, who to contact, and the content of correspondence to services and decision-makers. We can also support you throughout the process as you work to resolve a constituent’s case. 

We are proud of our track record. To date, we have successfully supported the overturning of every decision referred to our advisory service. As Steff Aquarone MP said after using the service: “I can say with certainty that without your initial case management direction, I would not have been able to act with the necessary speed to support my constituent in this vital and complex case.”

To access the service, please complete the form here: beateatingdisorders.tfaforms.net/234  

We will contact you within 10 working days. 

The advisory leaflet can be found on the MMSST Caseworker Hub.
