CEDA support group

Carers Eating Disorder Association (CEDA)

If you care for someone with an eating disorder, this support group could help you. We are a Luton/Dunstable-based support group for carers of someone with an eating disorder. We hold a monthly meet-up to share experiences, offer help and support.

Come along to the monthly meetings for carers; enjoy a cuppa, have a friendly chat and learn more about the support group. We share information and support each other in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere .

Meetings are held on the first Friday of the month at 10.30am to 12.00pm.

CEDA is pleased to announce that, due to demand, we are starting an additional support group session on the 3rd Tuesday of every month from 5pm to 7pm at The Disability Resource Centre.

Come along and talk to other carers, access support from services provided by The Disability Resource Centre or listen to visiting speakers (suggestions welcome). We ask for a contribution of £5 to cover costs.

Please email us to book your space at our support group meetings at cedaluton@gmail.com.

The group has been set up by carers with the aim of giving carers the opportunity to support each other.

Venue: The Disability Resource Centre, Poynters House, Poynters Rd, Dunstable, LU5 4TP.cost
