A CHARITY which offers help to people with eating disorders is to provide more support for women in the Durham and Chester-le-Street areas.

NIWE Eating Distress Service will be holding new group counselling sessions in central Durham, next month. It was formed 15 years ago to provide help to people with disorders, including bulimia and anorexia.

Services include a confidential hotline on 0191-261 7010. Anyone who wishes to attend the free and confidential sessions is asked to call 0191-221 0233.
