About
Hope’s Garden, Eating Disorders Support & Resource Centre was founded by the Eating Disorders Association of London in November of 2002. Modelled after Sheena’s Place in Toronto, Hope’s Garden is the only facility in the greater London area that is dedicated entirely to helping people with eating disorders and their family and friends.
Although we do not offer any clinical services, studies have shown that support and education are two key elements necessary for recovery from an eating disorder. Click here to learn about the differences between treatment groups and support groups.
All services provided at Hope’s Garden are at no cost to the user. Hope’s Garden relies on the generosity of individuals, corporations and foundations to maintain its services. Click here to find out how you can donate to Hope’s Garden.
