Norfolk EDA is a Charity, established in 1976 to provide a safe and comfortable environment for anyone in Norfolk, over 16, who suffers with the
problems of anorexia, bulimia, compulsive or binge eating disorder, and related issues. Our confidential, free or low-cost services are available to all sufferers, their families, friends and professionals involved in their care. Although we accept formal referrals from GPs and other professionals, you are also welcome to self-refer, and there are no formalities or permission required to access our services.
Our holistic approach recognises that people with eating disorders
have complex needs and extends beyond the "food & weight" issues to
all aspects of the illnesses. We offer empathetic support at all
times, respect the right of each person to choose whether or not to
participate in any
helping
process, and work with those who wish to address emotional change
and development without returning to food-based coping mechanisms.
We have experienced, professional staff and trained volunteers. We
work in liaison with other multi-discipliary services that include
consultant psychiatrists, psychologists, specialist therapists and
nutritional advisers.
We are a "not-for-profit" organisation. Our free or low-cost
services are funded mainly by Norwich Primary Care Trust, but we are
not part of the
NHS.
We also rely on grants from Trusts, donations from Companies, and
the generosity of private individuals.
We hope you find the way towards what you need and will benefit from
the services we offer.
