About SYEDA

Hand drawn underline

SYEDA is an independent charity based in South Yorkshire.
We provide non-judgemental support for people affected by eating disorders and for those whose relationship with food or body image is having a significant impact on their lives. We also support the families, carers and friends who care about them.

Our services include one-to-one support, support groups and education and training, helping people access understanding and support as early as possible.

This service was life changing, the counselling I received was excellent – I have tried a few different types of therapy before, but this was by far the most effective, something just clicked. Thank you to Izabela and the whole team at SYEDA for helping me to understand my disordered eating and to find a path forward.
