Besi Besemar February 22, 2014

Men Get Eating Disorders Too is to hold their fifth year celebration event Stand Up To Eating Disorders at the Latest Music Bar in April.

The charity was founded in April 2009 by recovered bulimia sufferer Sam Thomas from Brighton. He wanted to use his own experience with an eating disorder to help and support others with similar conditions.
