The Five Year Forward View for Mental Health stated that £30 million of the £150 million of additional funding to be made available for child and adolescent eating disorders would be allocated to clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) as part of their financial baselines for each of the five financial years 2016/17 to 2020/21.

£30 million was allocated to CCGs in 2016/17 and has been included again in CCG allocations for 2017/18. As it has been added to baselines we are unable to provide a breakdown of the £30 million by individual CCG for 2017/18.
