VOXED 2027: Voices of Experience in Eating Disorders

A one day, fully online conference bringing together lived experience, research, practice, community insight, and creativity—on equal ground.

Hosted by Kel O'Neill

What to Expect:

A New Kind of Eating Disorder Conference — VOXED isn't here to replicate what already exists. We're building something deliberately different, putting accessibility, openness, and honest dialogue at the core. Expect panels, workshops, and creative sessions. You'll hear from a wide range of voices: lived experience, research, and clinical practice — so that everyone can learn, question, and connect, not in competition but in conversation.

Equal Voice, Open Dialogue — Cost and credentials don't define who belongs here. Whether you're an eating-disorder specialist, counsellor, GP, youth worker, artist, student, carer, or simply someone who cares, VOXED welcomes you. We trust that listening and conversation spark real change.

Who Should Attend

- Individuals with lived experience

- Carers, families, and supporters

- Therapists, counsellors, and healthcare professionals

- Educators, social workers, and youth workers

- Researchers, academics, and students

- Artists, advocates, and community organisers

If you've ever thought, "I care about this but I don't know if I belong," you belong here.

Equity, Diversity & Inclusion

VOXED is built on the belief that all kinds of knowledge deserve equal respect. We're committed to:

- Amplifying Marginalised Voices: Including those from racialised, disabled, neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+, working-class, and other communities.

- Intersectional Perspectives: Holding space for complexity, acknowledging harm and hope, tension and progress.

- Ongoing Accountability: Listening, reflecting, and learning — because true inclusion is a journey, not a promise of perfection.
