Eating Disorders Awareness Week (EDAW) is an annual campaign to educate the public about the realities of eating disorders and to provide hope and visibility to individuals and loved ones impacted by eating disorders. Eating Disorders Awareness Week 2025 is taking place Monday, February 24 – Sunday, 2 March.

This Eating Disorders Awareness Week (EDAW), we invite you to join our efforts to create urgency around the need to recognize eating disorders as a public health crisis because The Time is Now. #EDAW 2025 is an opportunity to centre education about eating disorders which is critical for raising awareness, early detection, and access to quality resources.

In the UK, at least 1.25 million people are living with an eating disorder That’s at least 1 in 50 people.  And yet many people wouldn’t know how to spot the signs that someone has an eating disorder. This is important because the sooner someone is treated for an eating disorder the better their chance of making a full recovery.

Our campaign aims to reach new audiences with the message that eating disorders are serious mental health conditions that can affect anyone – at any age, gender, or background – at any time.

So join us to raise awareness of this serious mental health condition and let people know that anyone can be affected by an eating disorder.
