Nutriri Mindful Eating
743 members
Changing the diet industry "for good"; we believe that restrictive dieting "for profit" isn't a lasting solution; that being kept in fear of food isn't compassionate. We have recently received a grant from The Big Lottery Fund and become part of the Lloyds Bank School for Social Entrepreneurs. Nutriri has been meeting (in person) since January 2016; we are developing an online course and community to promote positive body image and conscious eating. Most importantly we support each other positively without judgement; our needs are different, our journeys individual - we don't have to travel alone!

FND Action
667 members
History has created a lot of misconception of Functional Neurological Disorders which has led to poor treatment and care of those diagnosed, which includes men, women and children of all ages. It is positive that the increase in awareness is slowly helping, but there is still a long way to go to ensure all those diagnosed are supported and cared for appropriately. FND Action is a charity registered in the UK that has been set up by a handful of people who themselves have been diagnosed with FND and/or NEAD. Our aim is to help those across the UK by providing a peer support network, ongoing advice and current information, and to work in collaboration with healthcare professionals to ensure the best care is offered for recovery and long term health management.
