Description

The Bronte Foundation was established by Jan Clarke, mother of Bronte Cullis after unsuccessfully seeking treatment for her Anorexia in Australia. Bronte was abandoned by the mainstream medical system in Australia and left to die at the age of 15. Her family decided that they would do all they could to ensure that other Australian families did not have to leave the country in order for their loved ones to receive the treatment and support they deserved. The Bronte foundation was established in August 2003 and to date has provided treatment, education and support to more than 150 families in an intensive program and ten of hundreds of families across Australia via school and community education programs. Recently it has become The Bronte Centre @ St Vincents Health.
