Project RED-S
By athletes. For athletes.
We are a team whose lives - and goals - have been impacted by REDs. As athletes, parents, coaches and supporters, we see a pressing need for resources that provide trusted, engaging information and support. Project RED-S has built a network of athlete ambassadors and trusted REDs specialists working toward our simple aims: awareness, prevention, and support.
Our mission
Awareness. Prevention. Support
For decades, athletes have struggled in isolation with a myriad of mysterious symptoms that slowly sap their passion, drive, and performance. Some may burn out, or even drop out, and many unintentionally sabotage their ability to reach their true potential.
Researchers have questioned what it will take to break through the lack of awareness and support, to draw attention to its hidden dangers. As athletes who have been through it, we're rising to the challenge. We've struggled, we've learned, we've recovered, and we want to help others do the same.

Striving to change the world is an expensive business. Every time you like, comment on, or share our social media content or website, you help bring us closer to our aims. But we need financial support too.
Your contribution will help us to grow our team and resources. It will ensure that we can raise the profile of REDs through different avenues, enabling the development of more sport-specific resources, online content, and courses. There is so much more we can and should be doing. You can help make it happen.
