Coventry and Warwickshire Eating Disorder Service is a new service, and brings together 2 previous teams: Coventry Eating Disorder Service (CEDS) and the Aspen Outpatient Service (South Warwickshire). This service development has occurred following significant investment and is part of NHS Transformation. This service development sets out to provide parity of care, place based care, increased treatment pathways and removal of access barriers.

The service aims to provide expert screening, triage, assessment, treatment, support and advice to service users and stakeholders. The service is aimed at assessing and treating individuals experiencing a range of eating difficulties and eating disorders including anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN), other specified feeding or eating disorder (OSFED), and type 1 diabetes with disordered eating (T1DE). We currently offer assessment only for binge eating disorder (BED) and avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), however we are currently in the process of developing treatment pathways to open as soon as possible.

Coventry and Warwickshire EDS is a multi-disciplinary (MDT), multi-agency team and is MDT led with a single point of access into the service. 

Coventry and Warwickshire EDS offers services to those individuals aged 18 and above and will work with the full range of eating disorder diagnoses, including those who have an autism and eating disorder diagnosis. The team will ensure that the transition for child and adolescent services; (RISE EDS) where suitable; is seamless, with joint working from age 17 years and 6 months.
