Help us Fundraise

Been There’s biggest fundraising event is here!

On Saturday the 10th of August, our CEO/Founder, Tessa Peters will be walking 61k to raise £61,000 for the 61% of adults in Britain who feel negative or extremely negative about their body image.

Encompassed in this statistic are some shocking realities:

1. 1 in 8 people experience suicidal thoughts as a result of poor body image.

2. Up to 3.4 million people in the UK are living with an eating disorder.

3. Anorexia nervosa is the deadliest psychiatric disorder in the UK. Most of its victims die by suicide.

Join Tessa on her walk and Step up Against the Silence. Tessa will be joined by influencers, advocates and supporters, marching against the stigma and raising funds to help hundreds more people access compassionate support via Been There.

Here are the ways you could show your support:

1. Donate to our Justgiving page

2. Join Tessa on part of her walk, meet other wonderful activists and SMASH the stigma

3. Create your own fundraising challenge and page to amplify your support. Download our fundraising pack to get some ideas.

4. Media inquiries: info@beenthereapp.com

As we are a charity we rely on your donations to be able to support as many people as we can. Your money will help us to support more Mentees, by funding the costs related to recruiting, vetting and training our volunteer Mentors, and providing ongoing support. It will also help us to create partnerships with other charities and services so that we can help adults within the workplace, universities and healthcare settings. We are continually developing the service so that we can best support people struggling with body image.
