📢 Call for participants

Previous research has found links between eating disorders and loneliness, but we still know little about how these experiences feel in everyday life.

Visit the link to find out more and complete a short screening questionnaire: tinyurl.com/EDIFY-REFLECT
A recruitment poster titled “REFLECT – Now Recruiting Participants.” The poster explains that the study explores how loneliness is experienced by young people with eating disorders, what it feels like day to day, how it is shaped by personal circumstances, and how it may be linked to eating disorders. It states that listening to diverse experiences can help inform better assessments and personalised interventions to support young people. Who we’re looking for: Young people aged 16–25 Living in the UK With current or past experience of any eating disorder With current or past experience of loneliness What’s involved: A short online survey A one-hour online interview At the bottom are contact details: EDIFYresearch@kcl.ac.uk and www.EDIFYresearch.co.uk , along with logos for EDIFY, King’s College London, and The University of Edinburgh. The background features soft blue and green wave shapes.
