Sometimes projects you feel passionate about take a while to make it to print! Real world evaluations are hard, but the message is when we evaluate peer support using recovery (rather than BMI or symptom) measures aligned with its underpinning ethos, that it works & is valued.

Looking forward to this exhibition of images of autistic individuals experiences of eating disorders and what we should be researching. It's free, in Edinburgh in time for #EDAW25 and we will be also showing it later online on EDACs website for those who can't make it in person
We are very excited to be hosting a week long exhibition using EDAC images from our photovoice study highlighting the experience of being Autistic with an eating disorder and research priorities. Please do pop in if you are in Edinburgh
