In aid of Eating Disorders Awareness week 2019, the SU Training Team and Kennedy Adamu are running an Eating Disorder in Sport Workshop to raise awareness of students’ vulnerability to this disorder at university. Since this is during Varsity and the workshop is for the Sports Teams, we are encouraging the Sports Teams to raise money for the Eating Disorder charity Beat in support of this week. Beat is offering free t-shirts for the teams that raise the most! 💙🧡
