Raising Resilience is a series of online workshops for carers that take place live over Zoom. Along with others caring for someone with an eating disorder, you’ll learn new skills from an experienced eating disorder clinician.
Throughout the workshop, you’ll receive a pack of information on supporting your loved one from Beat, Professor Janet Treasure’s Skills-based Learning for Caring for a Loved One with an Eating Disorder: The New Maudsley Method.
There are five workshops in total, which run weekly for two and a half hours.
The first four workshops will cover:
We’ll follow up with an additional workshop that will give you a chance to meet again with your group, discuss any progress and give you chance to ask any questions you might have.

We currently have very limited availability so if you cannot get a space, please do email the training team on training@beateatingdisorders.org.uk or call us on 01925 912829
The workshop runs regularly throughout the year based on funding.
We allow a maximum of 17 people to join each workshop.
It is open to parents, partners, siblings, and others caring for a loved one over the age of 12 with an eating disorder that has lasted fewer than five years.
The full workshop is five sessions long. We encourage you to attend the first four, although if you need to miss a session, there may be an opportunity for you to catch up when the workshop runs again. The final session will act as a review session with some introductions to our Coping with Christmas workshop depending on the time of year.
We ask that you have a good internet connection and a working camera.
Our other workshop for carers, Developing Dolphins, covers some similar themes, and if you have already done that workshop then Raising Resilience offers a great opportunity for you to practice and develop the skills you learned. However, it’s not necessary to have completed Developing Dolphins before joining Raising Resilience.
To book onto Raising Resilience you first need to sign up to our e-learning platform POD. Once you've registered for POD, you'll be able to see our Events Calendar and, if a session is funded in your area, book onto a Raising Resilience course.
