Bodywhys have today launched a new text service to make it easier for those affected by eating disorders to access information and support. By texting a code word to a standard rate text number, users will be able to receive an eating disorders information pack or a copy of the Bodywhys Resource for Parents.

• Text EDINFO and your Name and Postal Address to 51500 to receive a full Eating Disorders Information Pack

• Text PARENTS and your Name and Postal Address to 51500 to receive a copy of the Bodywhys Resource for Parents

• Text BODYWHYS to 51500 to get details of the Bodywhys LoCall helpline opening hours

Look out for further updates on service expansion in the coming weeks in the run up to Eating Disorders Awareness Week 2010 (February 22nd-26th).
