Liam Manning

Liam grew up in Dubbo in country New South Wales and is currently living and studying in Newcastle.

He had a six year battle with Anorexia Nervosa during his teenage years and is now well on the road to recovery.

Liam is a strong advocate for increasing awareness about boys and men with eating disorders, and increasing access to treatment.

“There is still a long way to go for information to get out there about men with eating disorders,” says Liam.

“I can see a lot of people out there who [are]… not getting the help that they deserve because they don’t think that they are sick, when they really are.”

“Eating disorders are not gender specific. They are going to affect every demographic over every age group.”
