About Us
Improving eating disorder care for neurodivergent people.
PEACE brings together clinical experience, research and lived experience to support better eating disorder care for neurodivergent people, their families, carers and clinicians.
What PEACE Does
PEACE supports more personalised and neurodivergent-informed eating disorder care by sharing practical information, psychoeducation, clinical tools and resources.
These resources help people understand the relationship between neurodivergence, eating, emotions, sensory needs, communication and treatment.
We aim to support care that is:
Understanding
Recognising neurodivergent experiences as meaningful and important to care.
Practical
Sharing tools and strategies that can be used in clinical and everyday settings.
Collaborative
Learning from patients, carers, clinicians and researchers.
Accessible
Presenting information in accessible, usable formats.
Evolving
Continuing to develop through feedback and new research.
PEACE began within eating disorder services at South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust and has grown to adapt eating disorder care in line with autistic experiences, current research and lived experience. The work continues to evolve through feedback from the people who use, deliver and support eating disorder care.
