Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many child eating disorder beds there were in the NHS in each year since 2010.

The data in the following table, collected from NHS England, provides the number of National Health Service-commissioned inpatient beds for Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) eating disorder services. It is important to note that NHS England does not hold reliable data for 2016 and prior. Bed numbers can vary throughout the year as units close and new ones open. These figures therefore are the average number of beds across the year.
