New live chat project - get involved!
April 24, 2012 at 11:06 AM
Beat is launching a new project that we'd like to get some of you involved in!
We will be running live chats every two weeks with professionals and Beat Young Ambassadors from 2nd May based on helping you or a friend who may be leaving eating disorder treatment services - inpatient and outpatient.
You can find out more and register your interest here:
We'll be doing the live chats on the Beat My Personal Best site, so make sure you register on it so that you'll be able to log in and use the chat service! http://www.mypersonalbest.org.uk/index.php/register/
We'll send you a password to the chat in advance by email so you can open the chat room for the session(s) you have chosen.
Here are the dates of the live chats which will all be between 7pm and 8pm. These sessions may change so we will send you the most recent updates.

The chats will all be moderated by Beat staff, so that nothing upsetting or triggering will get through. This will make the chats safe.
There can be a maximum number of 15 people in the chat room at any one time. Our professionals and Young Ambassadors will try to answer as many questions as they thoroughly can in the 1 hour live chat session.
Please do not be disappointed if your question does not get answered.
If you do sign up, please fill in our anonymous pre-evaluation form here - you will be asked to do another one after the live chat. This will help us to do more projects like this one: http://tinyurl.com/cwzyp5t
