VACANCY: Commitee Members for the Eating Disorder Therapist Networking Group

VACANCY: Commitee Members for the Eating Disorder Therapist Networking Group (volunteer role)

(UK-wide applications accepted)

Hello,

Talking EDs (Eating Disorder Support Service Scotland) are pleased to say that we have some volunteering vacancies available with the non-profit, voluntary arm of our business, the Eating Disorder Therapist Networking Group.

Before we open up membership of the Eating Disorder Therapist Networking Group to the public, we are looking to assemble a small group of volunteers who will be part of the Planning Group Committee. This is a great opportunity to volunteer 2-3 hours per month while meeting new people, developing new skills and knowledge and gaining experience in the eating disorder field and in planning and organising meetings and events. This is a non-renumerated role.

We already have a small Planning Committee assempled but are looking for one more person to join before we re-launch the network.

If you are interested in becoming a Committee Member on the Planning Group, please get in touch for a Role Description. At this time, we are not asking you to complete an Application Form as we aim to make this process informal. If, having read the role description, you are interested in being consider for the Planning Committee of EDTNG, then will then organise an informal chat.

Although we are based in Scotland, we welcome anyone in the UK to apply for this committee role as you can join our meetings online (if some of us meet in person).

If you are interested in this role, please get in touch for a Role Description. If you are still interested, we will arrange a chat in the next week and consider your application.

If you have any questions, need any more information or would like to apply, please feel free to get in touch. Similarly, if you know of anyone who might be interested in applying as a Committee Member or joining as a Registered Member in the future, they are very welcome to get in touch with us. Thanks for your time and interest in Talking ED and the Eating Disorder Theraist Networking Group. We look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes,

Alexandra

Although, we often see another form of binge eating that is characterised by an almost constant 'grazing' of food, which may amount to a large volume of food over time. BED is almost 2x as common in women than in men, although gender differences are less pronounced than in Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa. BED has been found is all cultures and ethnicities. BED was formally classified in 2014 as distinct Eating Disorder and now has formal classification in DSM-5. Keeping in mind that everyone experiencing BED is different and BED may present differently (we are all different and unique, after all!), some of the signs and symptoms of BED include: * Feeling out-of-control when eating during a binge episode. * Often hiding food (before it has been eaten or hiding empty packets a
