About this episode
Best-selling author and social media phenomenon Megan Crabbe AKA BodyPosiPanda and body image campaigner Alice Dunbar speak to Michael Pearson about staying body positive during the lockdown.

Specifically for this week’s episode, we’ve teamed up with Beat the UK’s eating disorder charity which has an online support group called The Sanctuary, which is open every day and is a safe space to share concerns or struggles relating to lockdown and the pandemic.

For support, you’re best to head to their website where they’ve set up a dedicated coronavirus help page. You can find out more at  https://www.beateatingdisorders.org.uk/coronavirus 


Our new series, Mental Health Against Coronavirus, is aimed at creating a guide for people to cope with all the struggles of daily life during the lockdown.

So far this series we've heard from doctors and nurses on the front line, psychiatrists and industry professionals sharing their top tips alongside the various charities providing urgent support for those struggling with their mental health at this time.
