PEACE Pathway Conference 2025

On 20 May 2025, we welcomed over 250 attendees from across the UK and internationally to the fourth PEACE Pathway Conference. The day brought together clinicians, researchers, lived experience experts, and service providers to share knowledge and tools for improving care for autistic individuals with eating disorders.

This year’s conference focused on:

• Implementing PEACE Pathway in diverse settings
• Sensory and communication needs in inpatient and outpatient care
• Broadening the PEACE model to include other neurodevelopmental conditions (ADHD)
• Co-production and lived experience examples
