People with eating disorders can find themselves in a very dark place with little understanding and support. Tastelife has created a community course that equips those who are suffering to take baby steps to full recovery. Our course is also for people who care for those with eating disorders and helps gain an understanding on how to help. Since 2014 we have trained over 100 leaders to facilaite the tastelife course and we have seen people take amazing steps to recovery. Could you join us and make a real differnce to those who are suffering?

Personal experience of eating disorders is very relevant, but not essential. The confidence to learn how to teach and lead a group is key. We will ask for references.
