CHARITY WORK

Sherpa's give back. Proud to be supporting BEAT.

 

COMMUNITY and Charity

Sherpa is proud to be supporting BEAT, an admirable charity that has been set up to help support people who are struggling with eating disorders. 

Team Perry started out 10 years ago made up of Tom and his siblings. They have run a number of London marathons for Beat and raised around £100k to date.

Beat is the UK’s leading charity supporting anyone affected by eating disorders, including those personally struggling as well as their family members and friends, health and education professionals. Since 1989 we have been committed to supporting those affected by eating disorders and working towards our vision: eating disorders will be beaten.

Eating disorders are serious mental illnesses including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder. 725,000 people in the UK have been diagnosed with an eating disorder. Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental illness claiming precious, promising lives every year. Stigma and stereotyping present major barriers against sufferers reaching out for the help they urgently need.

Eating disorders remain complex, costly and challenging illnesses; they cost the NHS £4.6 billion per year. Treatment is patchy at best and inadequate at worst, putting lives at risk every day. For more than half of sufferers, the recurring cycle of waiting, treatment, recovery and relapse lasts for more than six years. The sooner someone gets the help and treatment they need, the better their chances of making a full recovery.

The impact upon individuals and families is devastating; one in five of the most seriously affected will die prematurely. The Helpline provides a lifeline for sufferers like Natalie:

“Sitting here now knowing I am three years in recovery, I owe my life to Beat. If it wasn’t for the Helpline and making that initial call I really don’t know where I would be now.”

Beat exists to provide hope and improve life for anyone affected by an eating disorder: sufferers, their families and friends and society as a whole. We do this by providing services and running campaigns based on the principle that everyone affected by an eating disorder needs empathy and empowerment.
