What the petition asks
Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental health disease. Children are young and impressionable. Schools should not be a place that puts young people at risks
I want it to be made illegal for unhealthy diets and diet clubs to be advertised anywhere in schools, or to be able to hold meetings in school premises.
