You can never underestimate the power of your personal experiences as they are the most valuable possesions you will ever own

I am the Founder and Project Co-ordinator for 'Men Get Eating Disorders Too' - a website and publicity campaign that aims to raise awareness of male eating disorders to enable men to get support. I decided to set up the website (http://www.mengetedstoo.co.uk) following my own experience of having had an eating disorder throughout my school years and late teens. Reflecting on these experiences I realised there wasn't much help out there for men probably because eating disorders are usally seen as female only conditions. I hope that my campaign will help feel less isolated and provide much needed inclusion for men. I live in Brighton and work for two youth/community groups.

Sam Thomas has 1 Campaign Central contact in their network.
