Petition Mandatory training on eating disorders in all schools and care settings

I want the Government to require training in all health and social care settings, and schools, on eating disorders, the signs and symptoms for these disorders, and sensitive handling of sufferers of eating disorders.

I think if specific training on eating disorders was mandatory in certain settings, especially hospitals and mental health settings, professionals who may come into contact with sufferers would have a better understanding of eating disorders, which should greatly benefit those who suffer
