Parenting through Eating Disorders

Online event
Overview

A short webinar designed to encourage and support parents, carers and family members walking alongside a loved one with an eating disorder

Caring for a Son or Daughter with an Eating Disorder?

Are you finding it challenging, exhausting, or even frightening? Have you ever wondered whether you’ve somehow got parenting wrong — or blamed yourself for what your child is going through?

You are not alone.

Join us for a compassionate and honest conversation with tastelife charity founder Di and her husband Graham, who faced these same struggles when both of their daughters developed eating disorders. In this webinar, they will share their family’s journey, the survival tactics they learned along the way, and the hope they discovered as their daughters recovered.

This 30-minute luncthtime webinar is designed to encourage and support parents, carers, family members, and anyone walking alongside a loved one with an eating disorder.

In this session, we’ll explore:

  • The emotional impact on parents and families
  • A Dad's perspective on eating disorders
  • Feelings of guilt, fear, and helplessness
  • Practical survival strategies for difficult times
  • What recovery can look like
  • Finding hope and support through the journey

Whether you are at the beginning of this journey or have been supporting a loved one for some time, we hope this conversation will remind you that recovery is possible and support is available.

Who should attend? Parents, carers, grandparents, family members, friends, educators, and support workers.

Reserve your place today.
