What the petition asks
I was an inpatient at tulip house, Kent (eating disorders). The service has recently gone from 7day a week inpatient to 5day a week 9-5 service. This will cost lives! I cannot stress the importance of having a full time service. If it wasn't for my residential treatment there I would have died.
Eating disorders are a serious mental illness and have the highest mortality rates of all Psychiatric disorders.

Tulip house (Maidstone) is the ONLY eating disorders service in Kent. It is a NECESSARY service.
