About the organisation
Butterfly Foundation is the leading national voice representing people living with eating disorders and body image issues, and for the families, friends and communities who support them. Left unaddressed, the medical, psychological, physical, and social consequences can be long term and for many life-threatening. Butterfly changes lives by providing innovative, evidence-based support services, treatment, and resources (including the Butterfly National Helpline), delivering prevention and early intervention programs and advocating for the needs of our community.
Using its strong social media presence to raise awareness, Butterfly seeks to reduce stigma and increase help-seeking in relation to eating disorders and negative body image. Butterfly also coordinates the National Eating Disorders Collaboration (NEDC) for the Commonwealth Government Department of Health and are committed to collaboration across the sector.
