West London CAMHS Tri-borough Specialist Eating Disorders Service is part of West London CAMHS services line.

CAMHS Eating Disorders Service provides specialist community assessment and treatment to young people with eating disorders, aged up to 18 years and their families, in the London boroughs of: Hounslow, Ealing and Hammersmith and Fulham.

Tri-borough CAMHS Eating Disorder Services is a multi-disciplinary team located at the Trust HQ in Armstrong Way, Southall.

We work very closely with other community CAMHS teams in the Trust including, Children & Family Teams, the Neurodevelopmental teams and Community Adolescent Team, as well as Crisis Alliances Team and paediatric wards.

An Out of Hours service is available within the Trust CAMHS Service Line, and provides support and advice for children and young people who are in a crisis and present to the local A+E in an emergency (after 4pm and on weekends).

There is a tri-borough CAMHS out of hours' provision based at West Middlesex Hospital.

We accept referrals from GPs, Health professionals, Social Workers and Education Professionals. We also accept self-referrals.

We recommend all young people with suspected eating disorders be assessed by their GP who can rule out potential physical causes for weight loss or vomiting, and assess the young person's current physical health.

If that has not been done in the recent period prior to the referral, the young person will be directed to the GP first for physical health review
