Happy Birthday No Bodies Perfect! By Alexandra O’Brien It’s amazing to think that No Bodies Perfect will be 3 years old in May 2013! Where has the time gone? The support group from which No Bodies Perfect was founded in May 2010 has, undoubtedly, gone from strength-to-strength. I know that I cannot believe that the tiny group that met once a week for one hour in an old classroom in a healthy living centre, with no website, no volunteers, no leaflets, no posters and no business cards or name has become a leading eating disorder charity and the main eating disorders charity in Scotland! How did that happen? Time has flown since those early days. No Bodies Perfect is now an established, professional and respected charity with a huge amount of expertise, experience and passion for helping and supporting people with eating disorders. We also help people all over the UK and beyond , and thinking of expanding into Wales at the request of quite a few people. We have supported over 350 different people just during weekly support group sessions alone. We have received 1000s of enquires from all over the world and from sufferers, carers, family, friends, media, researchers, health professionals, teachers, businesses, charities and other organisations looking for help, support, information and education about eating disorders. We have added to our services significantly and our range of services now includes the following:
