Increased funding support for Avoidance Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID)
The Government should fund increased NHS support for sufferers of Avoidance Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID).
ARFID is characterised by the person avoiding certain foods or types of food, having restricted intake in terms of overall amount eaten and sensory processing issues around Food.
ARFID can have a significant impact on a person's physical and mental health, but in too many areas sufferers do not receive the support they need. The Government should provide funding to increase NHS support for sufferers of Avoidance Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID), also increase funding of educational courses for NHS staff to help them gain a better understanding of ARFID.
