A bric-a-brac sale took place on Saturday to raise funds for an eating disorder support group.

Rebecca Lisi, 31, of Balham, an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist, will be running the support group from September.

The sale took place in The Bedford, Bedford Hill, with clothes, books and DVDs on offer.

Ms Lisi raised £402, which will be used toward running the support group.

Those suffering from anorexia, bulimia and compulsive overeating issues can use the group, including families and friends.

Ms Lisi said: ""Eating disorders can have a terrible impact not only on the individual themselves, but also on their families and friends.

"Many people, some even as young as six, spend their lives battling this awful problem and do not know where to turn for help and support."
