Description

The day programme provides an intensive schedule of therapy and meal support. Our supportive environment assists people with eating disorders to regulate and normalise their eating behaviours and to explore the development of their illness. The programme supports clients to build on their strengths and to learn new ways of coping. 

The number of days each client attends the programme is flexible and will be decided in consultation with the individual and the team.
