The delegates are promoting healthy eating. We have a problem with anorexia, particularly among teenage girls, and other eating disorders. Will the delegates comment on this? I am thinking about the psychology in the classroom. I am worried about the teacher delivering the course. Reference was made to psychologists but I have a difficulty in understanding the means by which we can send out the right message.
