INFORMATION AND SUPPORT


UNDERSTANDING EATING DISORDERS

Looking for more information about eating disorders? We have a comprehensive
library of resources that will help you understand eating disorders and spot the
signs.




YOU ARE NOT ALONE

Eating disorders in men are more common than you probably realise. We want you
to understand that you’re not alone and help is available for you.


WHY MEN? AND WHY EATING DISORDERS?

On the evening of Tuesday 29th September 2009, Laurence Francis Nugent, aged
just 24 years old, went to bed complaining of chest pain. His family thought the
pain was due to muscle strain sustained during his constant vomiting. However,
unfortunately they were wrong; Laurence’s eating disorder caused a major heart
attack and, sadly, he died in the early hours of the morning. In 2012, Pamela
Nugent founded The Laurence Trust to provide a safe and compassionate space for
men and their loved ones to find support, so that tragedies like this one can be
avoided.

HOW CAN THE LAURENCE TRUST HELP ME?


ABOUT THE LAURENCE TRUST


WHAT WE DO

Our primary aim at The Laurence Trust is to reassure men across Northern Ireland
that are struggling with eating disorders. We support both those suffering
illness, as well as the people that love and care for them. As a bridging
organisation, our goal is to get vulnerable men on the right track towards
support, medical care, and information to improve their lives and help them
recover.




MEET THE TEAM

The Laurence Trust was created by the family of Laurence Nugent. Since then, we
have expanded with the support of passionate volunteers to offer a helpline,
online information, and guidance on seeking the best-possible help for eating
disorders. Our current team of seven works hard to raise awareness, connect with
vulnerable people and support those who desperately need a compassionate ear.
