Yesterday, our #DumpTheScales movement, led by Hope Virgo💚saw so many people turn up to march together for eating disorders.

We were all there for different reasons - we might’ve been angry, fearful, determined, optimistic, grieving, exhausted..

Read for an uplift backed by science

We are all terribly shocked and saddened at the loss of such a fundamentally wonderful person who also created big waves in transforming mental health research. I am so lucky to have known Lea and we will keep his work going and growing. Love to his family and all at MQ.
