Using our site

It is our intention to make the SWEDA website a place where people, whether sufferers or carers or indeed concerned parties of any kind, can come for accurate information and support and hopefully reassurance and inspiration too! SWEDA believes in, and practices, the principles of 'Self Help', recognises the validity and great value of 'peer support' and has an unshakeable belief that individuals experiencing an eating disorder and those caring for them should be enabled to access the tools and information that they feel they need in order to affect their own recoveries, and to be supported and held during this process and beyond.

We sincerely hope, therefore, that you will find our website both useful and supportive (and perhaps at times fun too) and that, should you wish too, you feel able to use it as a complementary part of whatever route to recovery you choose to travel.
